Color Inspiration #6

Hi all! Above is the Color Inspiration Challenge #6! The photo this week is borrowed from
Mystic Valley Traders. They have the most gorgeous bedding--I can hardly stand it! I want it all! Anyhow, I was particular drawn to
these colors. Have fun with it!
As usual, I'll share my card with you all when I post the Round-Up.
TAKE NOTE: There is only a small amount of green used in the photo, so remember to keep the Wild Wasabi to a minimum. :)
THE ROUND-UP
If you would like to be included in the Color Inspiration #6 Round-Up, leave a comment on this entry with a link to your card. A photo of your card may be on a blog or in an online gallery. Please link to webpages, not directly to image files.
Who's in the round-up?
20 cards total, consisting of ten randomly selected entries and 10 of my favorites. :)
When does my card have to be submitted?
Thursday, April 24 at 7:00 pm MDT.
NOTE: Those who have website and blogs, please DO NOT post the graphic above straight from my web address. Always save the image to your computer first and then upload it to your site. For swatches only, you can download the image file by right clicking here (or control+click for my fellow Mac users) and saving the file to your computer. Then upload the swatch image to your blog.

Okay it's there, but I must admit, I'm going back to it now to check my spelling. I was so hyper about getting "in there in time".
Colour Challenge 6

Hi Kristina

Here is mine for this week: http://rhondapalmer.typepad.com/my_weblog/
I tried to match up what paper I had to the colors in the catalog. Probably doesn't look like it. LOL
Good morning Kristina!
What a nice color pallet, I wish I were still in "that" bed! Confy, cozy...anyway here is my card not so comfy cozy LOL! Have a great day!

I just happened to check Kristina's blog before bed, and wouldn't you know she posted her color inspiration challenge! Then, of course, I couldn't go to bed, I had to stay up a begin my creation. I have to admit I was tired so I kept it simple. However, sometimes simple is better... I think. You can view my creation at

Thanks Kristina - it inspired me to go to the studio and create!
Oh, MAN!! I got up early, had a couple minutes before leaving for work and decided to check your blog. Actually had time to make a card, even. But, alas, no time to take pics and upload...so. I'll be submitting when I get home from work.
Fabulous summer colors! I think I may have added a little too much Wasabi. Here's my card: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/893212?cat=7236
Thanks for another great inspiration!

Maybe.
Does it make me smile?
Definitely!
Thanks for another great challenge Kristina!
