Color Inspiration Challenge #49

We’re almost to #50–can you feel it?! Crazy to think we’ve done 49 of these, huh?

Anyway, this week’s color photo comes to us from my cousin Mandy, who is absolutely adorable. She picked up this fabric for a project and when I saw it on her blog and had to ask her right away if I could borrow the photo for a CI Challenge. Thanks, Mandy!

She told me the fabric info: Westminster Fibers #EM02 Poppy Dot Floral & #EM3 Flower Field, its the Park Slope collection by Eric McMorris. Just in case any of you wanted to run out and buy some. If I had a sewing machine, I’d be tempted to do so! :)

As usual, please keep me updated if you find a spam link. You’ve all been so great and contacting me whenever you find one and I so appreciate it. :)

TIP: To get the lighter versions of Kiwi Kiss and Pacific Point, try “stamping off.” This technique is one I showed in last week’s Finally Friday video. It’s basically just inking up a stamp, stamping once on scratch paper, and then stamping on your project without re-inking. :)
