IC129, Swatch Shopping

Photo Details

Poster: Luv Flowers

This card is for the inspiration challenge this last Saturday. We were looking at different colors and textures from the Schumacher collection. When scanning this challenge, I saw a lot of wonderful interpretations. My thoughts were collecting patterns, colors, and textures that might work together. I call it swatch shopping; that to me is one of the most fun parts of decorating.

Thanks for creating this challenge, playing, and looking at my card.
