My Perfect Palette: Week 1

I enjoy working with color variety...a lot. In fact, I enjoy working with color so much that my taste in the colors I use in my designs changes so often I can barely keep up with it! So, I thought it would only be logical to show ya'll my perfect color palette of the moment! This palette will feature items I am working on, items I am loving, and give you a sneak peek into the colors you can see in my designs in the next few days. For my very first Perfect Palette feature, I have been really into these gorgeous rich colors that are a great transition from the hot August days to the cool Fall mornings. My favorite thing about using these colors is that they are so versatile. You can play up the orange and curry colors for summer, or the sage and chocolate for Fall. Such a great combination!

Here is a wedding invitation design I worked on this weekend that incorporates the sage and chocolate:

And here, you'll see some lovely features from my fellow UWIB ladies!

I just love this Cinnabar butterfly and buffalo stone necklace by PolishedTwo! A great transitional piece from summer to fall.

What a gorgeous Modern Landscape painting from Kristen Stein Fine Art! Another perfect transitional piece.



And how can you not love this sweet Harvest the Corn Illustration Print by Tamara Garvey? I could see this fitting beautifully in my kitchen!

I am just loving these gorgeous, rich transitional colors, but what will next week's perfect palette be? Will it be something completely different or a similar version of this week's palette? Hmm...we'll have to wait and see!

I hope ya'll have a fabulous Sunday!

Thank You to Inventing Weddings!

So, before I tell you about Inventing Weddings, let me just tell you about my disappointment when I realized someone had to sign for my printer when it arrived, and I wasn't here! Very disappointing. Luckily, though, they will be back tomorrow, and you better believe I will be getting it TOMORROW! I cannot wait to print all my new Fall and Winter designs I have been holding off on until my printer arrived!

Moving on...a huge thank you to Inventing Weddings for featuring one of my wedding invitations on their site! The image is below. Gorgeous items, and I am so honored to be featured with these amazingly talented artists!

I also received my paper! It was so exciting. The colors are gorgeous and I can't wait to feature them in my Etsy shop. I'll post some sneak peeks later.

All in all the week is going great. I hope yours is treating you well, too.

Thanks so much for checking in, and happy corresponding!
