Color Inspiration #8

Hi all!
So here we are at the 8th Color Inspiration Challenge. Can you believe it?!
This week's CI Challenge comes to us from
Pier1. I found this particular picture in their room inspiration gallery. :)
I'll share my card with you all when I post the Round-Up on Friday night.

This is quick posting for me! :) Thanks again for the inspiration! I don't normally use Brilliant Blue, so it was fun to break it out!
Thanks for all the work you put into this!
Here's my creation: http://designwithink.blogspot.com/

The pic is dark, but I will retake it tomorrow in better light.

Yay! finally have had the time to do one! See it here http://kirrilymatthews.blogspot.com/ Thanks for the inspiration!
Typically I've been a stalker/admirer of your site ... This is my first color challenge of ANY kind, and I think my first use of Brilliant Blue! Big firsts. Thanks for a reason to do both of them! My card is here on my blog: click here.
I finally participated! Threw this together real fast for tomorrow!-- it's teacher appreciation week at my son's school.
Here's the link - http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/908121?nocache=1

After I broke my finger yesterday I didn't think I'd be able to play today. I guess I have an extremely high pain tolerance for your color challenges Kristina!

I just have a quick question, are we meant to only use Stampin Up colour card or can it be any brand with those colours?
Fun color combo! Here's my card: http://dostamping.typepad.com/dostamping_with_dawn/2008/05/kristinas-color.html

Here's mine. Those are great colors! I don't think I have all those colors in stampin up paper but I think I got pretty close to the color samples.
Thanks for the challenge once again Kristina.

Just want to say thank you for all the hard work that goes into this, Kristina. I really love playing.
This wasn't too bad--Stampin' Up! has so many products using these colors right now. I also used this week's sketch challenge at Splitcoast. Here's my card:

THANKS KRISTINA!

I wasn't going to play, but I love Pumpkin Pie, and anything that goes with it. So, here we are;
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/908795?cat=500&ppuser=148154
Here is another card I made. I was really into the circles for some reason....

I didn't have any bashful blue paper but did have the ink spot so I used it to color the large star.
Wow Kristina! This one was lots of fun! Thanks so much for the challenge. I was getting a little worried about you possibly not having one but you relieved all of my fears! :D I was turning into a real blog stalker for a while there! Haha. Anyway, here is my card.

Hi Kristina,
here's my card:

I get the feeling of being in the 60's with these colors :)
It took me three tries to complete this card. I about had it but I was determined.
http://www.scrapbit.com/2008/05/08/third-times-a-charm/
Besides that, great colors. Fun to work with.
Lots of fun! Here is another card:
http://stampingunderthesun.blogspot.com/2008/05/fluttering-butterflies.html
I loved the combo so much I had to actually get some cards made before the deadline. It was such fun I had to make two:
They are in my gallery here:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/909078?cat=500&ppuser=48127
And it helped that the colors are my son's favorite and his b-day is this month! Thanks for the creative "push".
Oops, here is the second card:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/909079?cat=500&ppuser=48127
