Color Inspiration #36

Hi all!
The colors for this week's challenge come from a pin cushion that I found on Paula's desk at work. One of our co-workers Amy made cute pin cushions for Christmas gifts this year. When I saw it, I immediately had to take a picture. Isn't that tiny butterfly on the pin adorable? I love it! :)
Anyhow, enjoy the colors and I can't wait to see what you do with them!

Beautiful combo this week. Thanks for the inspiration! Hope you had a super holiday :-)
This is so fun! Can't wait to play! Just wondering...is that a pink felt fusion flower in the center/top of the pin cushion? :) Super cute!
I adore these colors! I will come up with something for sure!
Hi Kristina, thought I'd push myself for once and have a go at your color challenge. I really enjoyed myself!! Have a Happy New Year.

Hi Kristina,
I just realised I am such a doofus and didn't correctly link my card the first time! So at the risk of my first entry (post no 4) being deleted, I relinked correctly for you! Sorry about that!

I enjoy your color challenges and tutorials [they're fun to watch]. Thanks for keeping us inspired, and for helping us to see with an artist eye- the combinations and layouts that are all around us.
Thanks for giving us these challenges, it is great to be stretched once in a while!
Lovely colours.
Thanks for such a pretty color combo! I did a valentine, and I LOVE the way it turned out! :D
Gogeous colours - I was surprised you got a challenge together so soon after Christmas! You're a star!

That pin cushion is adorable in your inspiration photo. I also liked listening to your answers on the previous posts. Thanks for taking the time to do that.
Hi Kristina, I made it my new years resolution to create a blog & that's what I've done-today!
Now I have somewhere to post my Kristina CASE's... I have no excuse but to actually do them now instead of doing them in my head! Hope I have linked it up correctly-guess I'll go see...Thanks again for an awesome blog of inspiration x
Hi Kristina,
Thanks for another wonderful challenge. I have SO much fun doing them, and it's great for making me blog more often (well actually, blog at all!!). Thanks so much for all the info and inspiration you share with us - what would we do without you?
Thanks Kristina - what fun to actually have time to do a Challenge within the time frame!!
First Timer, too!! Thanks for the great colours this week, rather lovely...
Love the color combination this week! Thanks for the video Q&A
Thanks for a great colour challenge. These colours are great together.
This is my first time doing this and I loved the colours, but had the old stampers block I think....
Happy New Year Everyone! Find time for your goals, your loves and your dreams! Blessings! Diana
I am newer to the challenges...but for my personal New Year's resolution...I'm going to change that and began on NYE. A fellow stamper and I did our own "virtual night" and began with your color challenge! THANK YOU! Have a Happy New Year!
Gorgeous color combination! Hope you have a fantastic 2009!
This is the first time I've played and it was great fun. Thanks for inspiring us all. Have a great 2009.
I Love the color Combo this week....
I have been wanting to do this for weeks and finally got some time!
thank you....

I had to try out a scallop envelope box that I've been seeing around on some friend's blogs...Fun color choices! Did you get one of those pin cushions? What a super gorgeous gift idea!
Thanks for the challenge!
Lisa
Great colour combination this week. All the best in 2009.
Happy New Year, Kristina! Thanks for continuing to inspire us in 2009!
I've been seeing your color challenges around for a while now and I love the combinations you choose. I finally had some free time on my hands and decided to play along. What beautiful colors this week! Thanks!
I found this delightful site via another site that talks about "inchies" and "twinchies" things I've never heard of before! I'm a little behind the eight ball I guess, but I do know what ACEO's are as I do create them!

Hi Kristina! Thanks so much for this challenge, it was fun! AND, it gave me the chance to finally stop hoarding some pins that I've been hanging on to. :)
I am so glad I had some time to play today! Thanks for the great colour inspiration.

I want to wish you and everyone else a Very Happy New Year. Thanks for the time you spend doing extra special things for us, your readers and followers. We appreciate the time you take. I always enjoy the challenges.
GREAT! My 1st time trying and I already did it wrong! I'll try the next Color Inspiration.
Have a very Happy 2009!!!

This is my first challenge, yours and mine. It's challenging for me to put myself out there for everyone else's viewing, but I'm so excited to participate, and part of my resolution this year is to go outside of my comfort zone. This is definitely doing that. I love the colors too, so that helped a lot.
Kristina,
I absolutely love the colors you chose this week, so much that I made two cards. Hope you enjoy them. On a side note, I received a Slice machine for Christmas because of seeing it on your blog. I absolutely love it and was able to use it on my card. Thanks for all of the inspiration!
Jerry
My comment was posted here for 2 days and now it's gone?? I thought I listed it correctly - to the card post and not to just my blog?
I'm trying again!

I love these colors! I used the challenge colors but they don't look the same in the photograph!
Thanks again for the fun day! This comment is for both myself and my daughter.
Kristina,
I noticed that my entry was deleted. I think it was because I linked incorrectly, I just now read the FAQ so I'm hoping I did it right this time. Sorry, it was my first time trying to complete your color challenge.
Fantastic color combo!!! Happy New Year!!
