Color Coordinates Inspiration!
This week on the Wednesday Challenge we are joining forces with the lovely Shari Carroll and using her wonderful Color Coordinate choices for our inspiration. I prefer to have a starting point for a card, whether it’s a sketch, theme, or color inspiration challenge, it just seems to make planning a card so much easier for me if I know where to start. What about you? Are you like me, or do you prefer a blank canvas to do your own thing ? :-)
This is the gorgeous Coordinates Inspiration Board that Shari made, featuring several shades of Simon’s Colored Cardstock.
Just make a card or other creation using one or more of these colors and upload it into the linky on the Challenge blog!
Below are three projects created by the design team, that showcase this weeks theme! You can visit the challenge blog here to get all the details and see the amazing cards and projects that the design team has created this week. If you click on each designers name, you’ll be taken directly to their blog where you’ll get more details about their project!
And don’t forget that when you enter your projects into the challenge, you have a chance to win a $50 Gift Voucher to Simon Says Stamp!

I wouldn’t have thought of a couple of colours in that colour combo but they look fab together! Thanks for the colour theory help. I follow the blog by email.

Another fun day of great Halloween cards. I love the fat cat. He is just so precious.
Fun color combination!
I definitely do better with a new creation when I have a starting point. I love the colors that have been used for Halloween decorations the past few years – orange, black, lime green and purple. Shari’s card is so eye-catching and done so professionally.
Great cards and truly inspiring! I LOVE these color coordinates and even we don’t celebrate Halloween in my country I love this theme and its colors!
Love the colors!
Great colour combo. I am going to challenge myself to make a non halloween card using those colours. Thanks for the inspiration.
Very nice cards
I like both methods of card making…if I have time and want to challenge my creative side I start without a prompt such as a color pallet or sketch…but I also save inspirational designs and use these as a jump off for a new card design.
Not a big halloween fan, but love the color combos that go with it. all the cards are cute though.
So glad you brought back my favorite article
What a great way to use those colours. I do like having some guidelines to get creative. I especially like card sketches to jump start my creativity.
Such cute cards! Lots of inspiration. Thank you
