Color Inspiration #21

090308-colorinspiration20.jpg

Hi all! This super quick ('cause I'm running out the door to go to work) Color Inspiration Challenge comes to us from Old Navy. Aren't these shoes cute?!

For those without SU!'s new '08-'09 In Colors, don't fret! Simply replace the blue and green with Tempting Turquoise and Old Olive.

Good luck! I can't wait to see what you guys come up with!

SO YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE?

Make a creation (card, scrapbook, etc.) of your own using the above colors. Then take a picture or scan your creation. Upload your digital image to your blog or in an online gallery, and then come back to kwernerdesign blog to share! Leave a comment on this entry with a link to your creation. Please link to webpages, not directly to image files.

Who's in the Round-up?
After the deadline, I'll share my creation with you as well as 20 submitted creations, consisting of ten randomly selected entries and ten of my favorites. Pictures emailed to me will not be considered for the Round-up.

When does your creation have to be submitted?
Thursday, September 4 at 7:00 pm MDT.

NOTE: Those who have websites and blogs, you are welcome to use the above graphic on your blog. 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.

Hi!!!
i visit your blog all the time and always wanted to participate on your challenges! the thing is... I dont have the cardstock from the same company you use, since I'm from Brasil, i use the cardstocks that are made here...

sooooo... the question is... can i join the challenge even if my cardstock is not the same you use, if i try to use the most similar collor with the cardstocks from Brasil?

sorry if i wasn't clear enough.
