WT201 - Color Your World Spins Round Again
It's been a while since we last held this challenge and I thought it would be fun to revisit it after more than 2 years. This week we're finding ways to use Color Combo wheels or web-sites for a fun push away from our usual combos. My new favorite site is
http://kuler.adobe.com
I'm sure you have some too! Please link your sites into this thread or on your upload so we can all find some new inspiration! If you're not sure where to find some...do a google search or look up your favorite paint company. They are sure to have color combos there!
Have fun with this challenge! It's one we all can play! Please remember to put WT201 into your keywords section and post a link back here. We'd all love to see your designs. New uploads only please...let's get stamping!

WT201 Gallery Submissions
Thanks for playing along! Happy stamping!

Thanks Julia,
I'll have to do this one once I get back from grocery shopping...YUCKY! I would much rather do stamp. Hmmm, at least I can think of what I can do with my card.

Sounds good to me. I always skip the Tuesday colour challenges because of not having any SU colours. I have a colour thingy saved that I've used once or twice when I've been stumped what to put with a particular colour, but I like the look of the one you've linked to - off to have a more thorough look at it.

Hmmm...I never purchased the color wheel...and I didn't even know there were color combo tools online! (Except for the fantastic Tuesday SCS Color Challenge!) But I am home today, while he thermometer reads 14 below zero, with 36 below wind chill.
Gotta find a warm color combo today!! I'll check out that Kuler website...thanks!

you can even put in key words such as "sympathy", or "warm" and it will pop out a slew of options. |

I really have to use their color combos??? Because my mother was wearing something one day, then picked up this purse in another color and it is definitely not what you would put together normally, but the colors totally went together.

Thanks for a fun challenge, Julia! Whenever I am stuck for a color combo I turn to my ever trusted Stampin' Up! idea book and catalog! I can always find just what I need! I will definitely give these site suggestions a try!!

Oh Julia, I just LOVE color challenges.
Here's one I did for Color Combos - Coffee & Friends
Just click on their "Find All Our Color Combos here" and you'll see a great array of color!

Morning Ladies!! I'm like Sabrina, I don't own enough SU paper to play the color challenges so I usually stay away, but I found this Basic Grey paper that matched one of the color themes just perfectly!! Love it when that happens!!
It's All Or Nothing!
Thanks for the link to that color combo site Julia! I love it! :mrgreen: |

I like this one for finding neat color in photos:
http://www.degraeve.com/color-palette/
You can put in a photo that you like (we are kind of into photography in our family) and then it brings up beautiful colors!
HERE is my card - I had a photo that I put in and my Valentine card came up a little Christmas-y!
I also use the old stand-bys:
http://www.sucolorq.com/
http://www.scraptitude.com/colorcombo/
Bev, thanks for your link! I love that one! |

Fantastic. I'm going to give this a try. I have some unused SU card stock that I need some inspiration for. I don't use my blues from Rich Regals quite so much, I'm sure I can find some inspiration for them on that link you gave us.

WOW! Ladies, you give me the idea now about this type of challenge. I was a bit confused at first, but not now.
But, round 2 to the grocery shopping...going to Sam's CLub now, DARN! Will play when I get back.
