Color Inspiration #35

Hey, guys!
I'm actually writing this up a night early because I'm not feeling well and want to get to bed early and sleep in. Headache and weird feeling stomach. Hope I'm not getting the flu. :)
This week's Color Inspiration Challenge features a sweater that my co-worker Joellyn was wearing at work today. She walked past me, I said hello, and then, "WAIT! Can I take a picture of your sweater?"
LOL! Thanks, Joellyn, for letting this weirdo take a photo of your sweater. Apparently, she bought it at Anthropologie. Isn't it gorgeous!? I love those colors. I wish I had a nice pale minty color, but I suppose Baja Breeze will do. :)
Have fun! I'll catch up with you later on Tuesday to post the round-up from last week. I figured getting the challenge up was more important since I know some of you need to see the challenge early to carve out enough time to tackle it. :)

I hope you dodge the bug and feel better soon!
LOL, I love that you took a picture of Joellyn's sweater. :) You are so funny. I'm going to start doing these color challenges soon, since I finally started a stamp blog! :) StampPrincess.com. There's nothing really on it yet, but someday I'll find time! (Not so good at juggling the 2 kiddos yet.:)
Yes. another color challege!
Yay! I think I'm actually going to be able to participate in this one. Thanks for posting it early! Hope you feel better :)
Hi Kristina, I hope you'll feel better quickly! Thank you for thinking of us when your head and tummy hurt....I wouldn't be as kind! Donna
Love the sweater! We've got a bit of the yuckies going around here too. I feel your pain! Hope you get feeling better soon!
I love the colours in your challenge this week. Thanks.
Lovely colours again this week!
Thanks for all the inspiration.
Great colors! So glad I was able to play along!
I hope you are feeling better and don't end up getting the stomach flu, yuck!
Kristina, I am sending hugs and a special prayer. I hope and I prayed and asked God to Bless you with returning good health and give you strength to fight any illness.
As soon as I saw that flower I gasped. I luv it. Is it crocheted? Can you put up a photo of the whole sweater? I crochet and would luv it if I could make one of those flowers.
Be well and I Wish You a Merry Christmas
from Maine to you and yours.
Could you create a Christmas card that has a stamped and colored image along with all your usual magic? I am trying to find the perfect idea for my cards this year. Thanks for everything you do for all of us who visit your blog.
This was a fun one, I am almost sick of Christmas color stamping. Thanks-Kira
What a cute sweater that must have been! Thanks again, Kristina!
Kristina, I hope you are feeling better soon! Nothing worse than feeling bad around the holidays!
Obviously I was in the right place at the right time last night... I usually don't get to play with your challenge until after work & after Alex goes to bed on Tuesdays... When I started to stamp last night & was surfing around for inspiration I found your challenge! YAY!
Thank you again for all your hard work!
Love the yummy colors this week!

I love these colors together! The sweater looks gorgeous. I admire your restraint -- you just asked to take a picture of it and not borrow it.
Hope you're feeling better!

Hi Kristina, I hope you are feeling well.
This weeks combination was an interesting one. At first glance it seemed an easy combination but it was harder than I thought, maybe because these colour are not the normal colours that I usually use.
Merry Christmas
It's cold here! Thanks for another challenge. Hope you are feeling better soon and Have a great holiday!
Feel better soon Kristina! Thanks for another great challenge.
Hi Kristina,
I've finally gotten around to playing along with your colour challenges and am really enjoying it. Thanks for all the inspiration you give us, I just love that you can do that from the other side of the world!
I hope you're feeling better real soon.
Hugs all the way from New Zealand!

Love this colour combo, Kristina! I chose to use it for a Christmas card!
Here's my card!
Hi Kristina! You inspired me so much, I can't stop making cards after I found your videos. I submitted one card, I hope you like it!
beautiful colors, so saffron was tough for me as I was trying to do "Christmas theme" cards
I would like to know if I am missing some quick process to go through all the submissions. How can one bring so many submissions up one by one every week. Love looking but too much time to look.
Love these colors! Thanks for having such a fabulous challenge...and Merry Christmas!
I just realized that I forgot about the Saffron. Oh, darn.
Thanks so much, Kristina!! I just love these challenges and then going back to see the Top Ten!! Thanks so much for doing this each week. Hope you have come out from "under the weather!"

Hi Kristina! Hope you're feeling lots better! And thanks so much for the challenge -- totally helped me make a masculine thank-you card, I always have trouble with those!
