Hi all! We’re heading into the fourth Readers’ Choice Color Inspiration Challenge, and this time it’s all about the blue. :) When you look around the web in galleries or on blogs, you don’t see a lot of the blue in this photo–the bright blue–but it can be a really strong color in a great combination like this one. The photo for this challenge comes from Laura.

Just like previous Readers’ Choice Color Inspiration Challenges, this one is like the color challenges of yester year. :) Jump on in and create something to share!

Oh, and if any of you find a spam link, please contact me. Thanks!

Okay! Are you ready for the next challenge? This time it’s from Carol. :)

I really love these colors, too! :) The purples are so pretty. (Purple seems to be a running theme for the last few challenges. Hm. Weird). Anyway, have fun with it! And remember to use all the colors in the color combination. That’s part of the challenge. :)

RC Color Inspiration No. 2 Round-Up

by Kristina Werner on June 7, 2010

in Challenges, Color Inspiration

Wow! That was a hard color combination, eh? There were so SO many great cards, too! Here are my top ten picks…

TOP TEN

NOTE: This is just a friendly reminder! :) There were some cards in the submissions this time that while they were very nice, they didn’t use the actual color combination. I decided to not include them in the round-up. If you would like your card to be considered in the round-up, please be sure to use all the colors in the combination. That’s part of the challenge. :) Thanks!

HI all! This is second picture from the reader photo submissions. This time, the photo is by Kristie.

I think you’re all in for a real challenge. These colors are pretty unusual. In fact, I didn’t have a purple in mind. It’s a pretty bright purple in the photo, and the only purple cardstock I have on hand is SU Elegant Eggplant, but that was too dark. I can’t wait to see what ya’ll do with it! Mwa ha ha! ;)
