Color Inspiration #9

Hi all! Before I forget, remember to check out the final part of my Questions & Answers video... I posted it right before I posted this entry. :)
This week's CI Challenge comes to us from marthastewart.com. I was looking through the home decorating section and came upon this photo. :)
As usual, I'll share my card with you all when I post the Round-Up on Friday night.

Well, it's done... and it's an insomnia card. I'm not proud of the end result, but I am proud I was able to incorporate all of the colors!!

Thanks! I had a bit of a challenge with this one. I have So Saffron issues!

Well, between color inspiration here, the SCS Wednesday sketches challenge and Beate's Grid technique tutorial for SCS, it looks as though I better get busy!
Fab color combo...I'm off to be creative...or at least give it a good honest try :)
Another GREAT color combination, Kristina! Thanks for the continued fun and inspiration each week! Here's my card... http://stamphappy-tammy.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/05/celebrate-the-j.html
BTW, have enjoyed your Q&A's this week! I had NO idea you actually worked for Stampin' Up! What fun!
Here's my card. It was really hard for me!
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/914010?cat=500&ppuser=94443
Here is my card. Thanks for doing this! I enjoyed your video answers this week, too.
Wow I just found your blog. Just in time for my Color Theory class. I wish I would have been here eight projects ago. I love your style and your work. I hope to be as good as you when I become a grown up graphic designer.:)
Thanks for all the inspiration, you are on my daily blog list for sure.
Thanks again for the challenge! This one is great!

Kristina, this is an AWESOME color combination. It has so many possibilities for different occasions. My card hasn't made it onto my blog yet, but I put it on SCS so here's the link to that:

Thanks for a great challenge!!!
Here is my card:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/914219?cat=500&ppuser=116163
I ended up not using the So Safron- even though it was the first color that I grabbed for!!
I love the bright and happy colors! Here is my card:
http://stampingunderthesun.blogspot.com/2008/05/kristina-werners-color-inspiration-9.html
Thanks again Kristina... I love trying new color combinations.

Kristina, I love these challenges, especially when a deadline is looming! Here's my take:
http://justforyoubyjenn.blogspot.com/2008/05/color-challenge-inspired-birthday-card.html
Another great pic. I love the inspiration you choose. After looking at my post, I wish I would have used more tempting turquoise.

Hi Kristina,
This second card was waaaaaaay harder than the first. I found matching these colours to a flowery theme really difficult!
http://ryemilan.blogspot.com/2008/05/second-attempt.html

This was a really hard color combination - that Tempting Turquoise was a thorn in my side, but all and all, that's why it's called a "challenge".
Here it is:
