Kristina's Color Inspiration #43


On such a gloomy day, what a bright spot to have a go at another one of Kristina's Color Inspirations. I just love it these colors. Although it's always a real challenge to me when she chooses a lot of colors for the palette. The blue really threw me for a loop. I figure if I use each color moderately it will look more pleasing. I did manage to get all the colors in there, although the Ruby Red is very sparse (only the mane on the lion.) I've only had Wild About You for a couple of months, so this is the first time it's seen ink. The bird from Cheep Talk came just last week. It really didn't realize until halfway through the card that I chose dots and stripes, just like the inspiration picture. Funny how your sub conscience has it's say, huh? So, thanks for stopping by today! Hope you have fun making your cards, too!
