another edition of color combination inspiration

I am so excited at all of the great feedback that I've gotten from my color combination inspiration posts!  I got a lot of great, new color combination suggestions from my last post as well as some requests to revisit favorite combinations.

As always, I have done my best to include a wide range of subjects.  You can pull great color combos from virtually any medium for any kind of crafting.  Enjoy!

Green/Mauve revisit from Ann (thanks to Linda for this awesome suggestion last time!)

This isn't quite hunter, but it's a rich green.

  1. Gorgeous! Lately I've working out different color arrangements with grey since we just painted most of our house grey! The kitchen will have pops of yellow; my studio has pops of turquoise, brown and lavender; and everywhere else has brown, green, & turquoise.

  8. I really love that pink, yellow, and grey combo. I see grey paired with yellow a lot, but I love the spark that the bright pink adds. :)

  13. This is so fun. I really like the red and turquoise. I added a couple of red beads to a turquoise necklace today and it totally changed the whole mood. It was awesome. :-)

    Next time I'd like to see something metallic!

  15. Very fun color combinations! I like burgundy and just about any color. I used to frame black and white drawings and photos in burgundy mats and decorative black frames. Very lucious ;-)

  19. great post! I love looking at color combos. One of my favorites is (light) blue/brown. And burgundy is a great color, but I must say I always feel like I'm celebrating Christmas when I pair it with any color green. Guess I've been brain-washed... {:-D
