Time for a giveaway! I’m celebrating three things today: (1) finishing the vacation video/slideshow that I’ve spent weeks on, (2) the almost end of March [my least favorite month–winter is just too long], and (3) according to google reader I am just 5 people shy of having 200 blog followers! So it’s time to giveaway this charm pack of Innocent Crush that I picked up on sale a few months ago. To enter, leave a note below sharing a current favorite color combo!

Patty D from NC - Thanks for the chance to win. Thinking of red and cream quilt as the next color combination I’d like to play with.
diana - I have so many mixed feelings about this line, but I would love a charm pack to try. Now I’m eally stucked on dark purple and vivid green, of course I have almost none in my stash…
Alison - Anything with grey. I think you can go completely bonkers with colour and then grey seems to calm it all down and give it a modern edge.
tracy_a - Thanks for the giveaway! I agree – March is just a slog. Right now – bluey-purple and bright orange-yellow – working on a Road Runner party for my daughter!
Leanne - now you’re 4 people shy 🙂
I love your blog.
Kim - I am loving yellows and grays right now. Love your blog, congratulations on the success!!

Rachel B. - I love green and purple together.
Thanks for the giveaway.
Marci - I am on an aqua and yellow kick, making some things with a fat quarter of City Weekend. I am sure I could come up with a great project to use some Innocent Crush!
Jessica - For some reason, I’m really liking pastels and white the past few weeks. It’s probably seeing daffodils and tulips out and really hoping that spring comes to my house soon! Thanks for the giveaway!
katielea - I have several Christmas items to make…so right now I have red/green/grey/white on my mind. Not really exciting but that’s where I am right now!

Sandra in WA - Favorite color combo…. Hmmm…. there are so many! Looking around my home I guess I would have to say anything with blue. Most of my rooms are blue or at least have a blue carpet or surface somewhere. Periwinkle paired with a soft peach is probably my very favorite.
Kati - I love grey and citron or orange plus a bit of teal.
H2Ogirl - Oh I’m trying my luck again. . you just have the best things missy!
My fav colors right now is aqua and orange. This could be as I’m in an on-line bee that is using these exact colors for the entire swap.
Deb - My favorite colors right now are lime and navy… it’s something about seeing it on my little boy that makes me happy! Oh, and I do like March; it’s my daughter’s birth month :o)

Favorite color combo? Gray and Yellow!
Cori Lewis - Congrats! Love checking things off the list!

Oh, color combos: right now, I’m loving the eggplant & tangerine combination.

felicity - I’m with Kelly – chartreuse + anything = love.

LisaB - I’m consistently drawn to yellow & grey combos, also to red and teal, although I’ve never done a project with either of those combinations, weird, eh?

WE are heading into Autumn and Winter here, and I am thinking of greys and blues and rust…

Ruth - I’m coming over all olive and orange, with a bit of grey and black, but don’t count right? Thanks for the giveaway, and March Madness is nearly over 😉
Judy - I’m currently obsessed with bright sunny yellows or bold spring greens paired with silvery or matte grays. I like the contrast, and it reminds me of Spring – brilliant colors, but always still a budding thunderstorm on the horizon.
amanda - Go, you! I’m loving chartreuse + gray & sometimes + aqua. The daily outfit on A Beautiful Mess killed me today. Btw, I got here via Flickr… off to peruse your archives… 🙂
