KWernerDesignBlog: Color Inspiration #22

Color Inspiration #22

Hi all! Just a quick update from the Salt Lake City Airport! I'm waiting for my flight to board. :)

This week's Color Challenge comes from PBTeen, in particular this shower curtain. Awesome colors! Enjoy!

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 11 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.

Sarah N:

I'll be back with my card! I love that shower curtain - I think I'll be using Baja Breeze instead of Soft Sky though (don't have SS in ink and can't use retired colors for my displays...) Hopefully the BB will look as awesome with this as the SS does. I would have never thought to put Bravo Burgundy with Rose Red...excited to get started...if only the school day would end!!!

I had a harder time with this week's colours - mostly in using the bravo burgundy with the rose red and regal rose, but that's what I love about your colour inspirations is they get me using different colour combinations that I wouldn't come up with!
