Your design host for this week is Sandi from
Paper Trail / Celticwoman
Here's what Sandi had to say about the inspiration
for this week's challenge:
Well, this is my week to host the challenge and I eagerly invite all of you to play along, as these are some of my favorite colors. I chose blue/green, chocolate brown, tan and cream. There is a peace and tranquility to these colors, which I am sure is the reason the bedroom in the picture just calls out for a nap. Speaking of naps, there is no creature on earth that has so perfected the art of napping as the cat and/or the husband, which of, both have become the object of my affection in this card. I wanted to use whimsy and humor, so to share that, elegant colors don't always need elegant presentation to work. You may all take one lovely nap when your challenge is completed, LOL. Hugs
Here are projects from our other designers to help inspire you.....
