Beate is back with her Be Inspired Challenge! This week's Be Inspired Challenge #19 used this awesome bedding from CB2 which prompted me to finally use two of the new Stampin' Up! In Colors from the new 2008 Fall Winter Catalog & Idea Book ... Kiwi Kiss and Tangerine Tango. (The other new In Colors are Pacific Point, Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red, and Pink Pirouette.) Although I ventured out with my new In Colors, I'm still stuck in time with my old stamp sets ... I'll have some new SU Stamp sets coming soon!As you can see, I took the pattern and the colors from the inspiration bedding quite literally with my design. I love the stripes on the pillow cases and mocked them on my card, and used the retired Level Two Hostess stamp set, Spring Solitude and retired Chocolate Chip Poly-Twill Ribbon. Along with the colors Kiwi Kiss and Tangerine Tango, I used Chocolate Chip and Basic Gray.
