I added this print, called Quiet Calm, to the shop yesterday. I'm liking the pink, blue, and lavender (which are quite girly all together) paired with the burnt orange color. It's interesting, no? Not a color combo I've ever used before.

What are your favorite unexpected colors together? Send me images! I love new color inspiration!

I get inspiration for the colors I use from many places... here is one of my very favorite photos that continues to inspire me color-wise:



And look at this one:



Isn't it incredible?? There is so much that I love about this photo. The color, the mustaches, the fact that it makes me want to travel all around the world, those hats (turbans?)....

Photographers really have the coolest jobs in the world, I think. Can you even imagine getting the chance to capture this image and be in that place? SO cool.

OK, this turned into a REALLY random post. To bring it back to the beginning: check out my new print! I like the colors! And feel free to send me your favorite color inspiration! :)

I love this print! Do you think you'll ever put this print or any others on the cover of a notebook like you've done with your patterns?
