The Color Suite ... let's try this one again

It seems with my last internet explorer upgrade my ability to upload images into typepad left the building. So 2 weeks after my original post I am finally revisiting the color suite.


Catherine from Scrapbooking & Cards Today approached me awhile back and asked if I would take on a monthly color challenge for the magazine. I love color and combining colors in unexpected ways so Catherine knew she had come to the right place. Thus the Color Suite was born.


Here is July's challenge ... it is bright and bold representation of some of my favorite colors.
