I play favorites. I hate that I do but sometimes I just can't help it. I love yellow and green. I rarely create a project without using a lot of those colors. I have been trying to get better by challenging myself to use colors I would normally never use; not because I don't like them, but I'm just not drawn to them as much. I saw this color pallet on Pinterest (of course) and I liked it, but instantly knew I would normally never use them in my crafting. There is one color in this pallet that I do use often (summer sunrise) but not with these other colors.
Gorgeous color pallet and very inspiring, don't you think? Perfect color combo to jump start my challenge just as we enter spring. Most of my colors in my project are pretty close; but the first color I just could not find a close enough match so I improvised a little.
The piece of darker blue peeking out is the color I improvised on. I still was able to fit in a little green and yellow with the bird picture, but let me assure you it is a lot less than normal!
I would love to hear what you think about this color challenge or even some constructive criticism on what maybe you would have done differently.
Thanks for taking a look and check back next Sunday for hopefully another color challenge. Also I would love to see your work using this color combo so please share a link in the comment section!

And now for yellow and green! I do have to stay true to myself and I just could not help but throw in these little cuties.
I have a large myer lemon tree in my yard and it produces so many lemon! It is a little overwhelming. But my neighbor helps me juice most of them. I put the juice in the little half pint canning jars and I made these to go around them to give as little gifts. I just love them!
