52 Weeks of Color Challenge: Ecru

By Luna Jubilee // 52 Weeks of Color Challenge // 99 Comments

Welcome to Week Eighteen! We just completed the first third of the challenge. Its really going fast, huh?!

This past week I created an inworld group for us: details here. The group is for us to chat and stay connected each week. Until the group gets a little more established I’d like to invite everyone who’s involved with the challenge to join. I’m planning at random to drop teases and hints to the upcoming colors.

Also, there have been several more designers asking to join so they too can create using the colors I have planned. Every designer is welcome to the challenge and to the group. At this time, I have notices turned off until more folks join and we get a sense of what the group would like.

Please do chat until your heart’s content. Just keep it friendly and courteous. I really like this sense of community we all created. Its interesting how one challenge can bring together so many! <3

Btw, I clearly photoshopped out the ecru-ness of my outfit. oops! I’ve also overlooked the highest of holy days‘ color. And totally sorry for the back to back unusual colors. What can I say, I love me some earthy colors. lol

Ecru was a bit tough. I think Umber -may- be a little easier. Maybe.

Yes, I’ve been looking my picture and asking myself, ‘Is it ecru?’ Well, to me it is… One of the things that makes everyone’s pictures so interesting is the different interpretations we all have, so I’m happy to throw my ‘ecru’ into the mix! http://adreamofoceans.wordpress.com/2011/03/05/lost-in-a-cold-desert-52-weeks-of-color-challenge-ecru/
