Color Inspiration #21 Round-up
Hi all! Just a quick card tonight for the Color Inspiration Challenge. I have to say, this was a hard color combo, wasn't it? I struggled for a bit. It truly was a challenge in every sense of the word. :)
Anyhow, I was SUPER impressed with how many excellent entries there were this week! Usually, I have to narrow it down to ten from about 14 to 16 entries, but this week I had like 25 flagged! I could have had a whole separate runners-up category!
Great job everyone! :)
BTW, for those of you wondering if I've abandoned Stampin' Dimensionals for Scotch foam tape, don't be alarmed! I just ran out and had to use whatever I had on hand. Don't you worry, I ordered 6 more packs of dimensionals. Just using up the foam tape first. :)
And on to this week's selections!

I'm looking forward to seeing how you get your glitter to stay in one place & not get everywhere. I love it used on your heart on your card. So Pretty. Thanks for the round up.
Your card is too cute! Funny tho... I thought of something like this except my circles would on on the right side but decided to stick to my owl card. I LOVE yours!
Oh, the first link on the top 10 isn't correct. There is a period (.) at the end of the URL.
Just FYI and have a great Friday + weekend!
Thanks, Savitri, for letting me know about the link. It's all fixed now. :)
OMGolly! I'm so excited that my card made Top 10! Thanks, Angie Tieman, for giving me a heads up this morning! What a great way to start the weekend!!!
super picks! I love them!
Lovely selection - I guessed about 5 of the top ten! I am going to pretend to myself that mine would have made the runners-up list ;)
I LOVE your card!! Those three elements on the circles are just PERFECT. So cute... All of the cards submitted are awesome too. Fun color combo!!
Kristina, I LOVE what you did with the challenge!
Great card Kristina!! Each little circle has such a sweet little kiss in the middle...
Have a great weekend!
Hugs

I just missed the challenge... misread the details and made a card so I'm posting it anyway. I don't mind not winning... I just hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for the pick Kristina - you made my w/e!!
Your card is just adoreable!!! Everyone else did great on this color combo... I can't wait to get the new "in colors".
Love your card this week! I didn't get to participate because we are off traveling in Spain, but this week was such adorable colors! I cannot WAIT to get my in colors!
just wanted to give you a big congrats on becoming a Garden Girl!
I always love your color choices. esp. on your own cards. if i use one color i have to repeat it somewhere in my card. i love that you are not afraid to use diff. colors and they turn out so beautiful.
i also noticed the overload of your work at 2 peas yesterday and was wondering what that was about and then noticed the GG thing below your name this morning. Yeah for you. i can't wait to see what you come up with. cool.

que des jolies choses à découvrir... je reviendrai...
I had wanted to thank you for choosing me in your top ten. I was thrilled to say the least! There should be a special crafters' word for that feeling!!!!! Our internet went out shortly after seeing my card in the round up-so the suspense has just sort of stuck around all week.
Your card was delish-just a little bling and so clean and fresh. Very cool!
You also picked my sis-in-laws card, we live on separate coasts-but called each other so excited in the middle of the night!!! We'll never forget it, and I'm sure we'll be doing it again. So fun!
Thanks again!
Kristina! I love your card for this challenge!!! Gorgeous!! Congrats on becoming a Garden Girl too!
I also wanted to say thank you so much for choosing my card as a Top 10! I could not believe my eyes when I saw it!! You made my week!! Plus the added bonus that you also picked my Sister-in-law's card for the top 10 too! What were the odds?? (She is the one who left the last comment!!) :O) Needless to say, we were both jumping for joy as we were chatting away on the phone! Both of our husbands thought we were crazy!! Thanks again for the fantastic challenge!!
