Have you been to this blog - Color Combos Gallore?
From the blog - "Each week a new color challenge is posted. The challenge gives you the opportunity to try new color combinations. Try it! Need a great color scheme for an assignment, or a submission? Do the colors match a certain paper or photo you've been wanting to scrap? You can also just use the colors for one of your other challenges! Or maybe you just haven't experimented with these colors yet. Whatever the reason, JUST DO IT!!!! Your layout will just POP and I am sure that you will be happy with the results!"
It's a great source for color inspiration. Most of us have SO MUCH PRODUCT that it's hard to pick a place to start when working on a new layout or project. At least for me, if my choices are narrowed done, it's amazing how quickly inspiration and ideas come!
Janet contacted me early in the summer asking if I wanted to select a color combo and guest design for the week. I love doing challenges like this, gives me a reason to scrap just for the sake of scrapping! Sad to say, but I don't have too much time for that anymore these days!
Here are the colors I selected for this week's challenge - aquamarine - pale turquoise - deepest brown - goldenrod.
And here's my layout based on the color challenge -
Check out the blog to see the layouts the other designers created using the same colors!
