Celebrating 50

50?  Really?  Can you believe Kristina is celebrating her 50th color inspiration challenge?  I missed a couple when we went to Spain to have Landon and then when we went on vacation, but it’s been a blast participating each week!  I remember the first one… sniff.  Seems like just yesterday… sniff.  sniff.  TeeHee!

In addition to my card submission this week, I thought it would be fun to celebrate a bit with Kristina so here are…

Top Ten Things I’ve learned from Kristina’s Color Inspiration:

1.  That you can mix colors in a totally unexpected way… there is a whole world of color out there just waiting to be discovered!

2. That inspiration can be found anywhere, whether it’s a favorite hair bow, a great shopping trip, or even pillows you might find around your house!

3.  That if you start something new and do it with excellence… others will follow.

4. That you can meet new people online and become true friends!

5. That great inspiration can bring back your mojo!

6.  That it’s okay to not “win” because playing really is just as fun!

7.  That being stretched outside your comfort zone isn’t always a bad thing.

8.  That creativity is something to be cherished and enjoyed.

9.  That you should never say,  “What was she thinking with those colors?!” because those will end up being your favorite colors and likely produce the best card ever!

10.  That maybe I should start a KW Fan Club!  We {love} you Kristina! 

So, if you are new to the color inspiration challenges, be sure to stop by Kristina’s blog for all the details!
