Well, I had so much fun with last week's color challenge at the SPCC blog that I decided to try again (plus, this week's prize is AWESOME!!!). Anyway, this combo was way harder for me for a couple of reasons - 1) I don't own any pale plum...or anything that close to it, really, and 2) I don't have any patterned paper or inks or stamps that could be used to really pull the look together. So, I found this polka dot paper in my stash that sort of matched a few of the colors, except it had red dots instead of orange dots. I wanted to figure out a way to cover up those red dots with some Pumpkin Pie orange, but I opened a box and remembered these fun felt flowers...which just happened to be the perfect orange color! Voila! Problem solved. The patterned paper and flowers are Hobby Lobby's brand, the letters are Quickutz, and the stitching templates are Bazzill In Stitch'z.
Hopefully, I will get to keep playing along every week, but it's back to my day job this week as school starts on Thursday. Maybe one project a week wouldn't be too hard to get accomplished.
Thanks for looking, and be sure to check out the rest of the wonderful projects at http://spcolorcombos.blogspot.com/.
