The answer: I COULDN'T.
I saw the set Watercolor Wings in the new catalog and KNEW it would make STUNNING cards!! It's available in a Framelits bundle, too!
Here's the first one I made:
My inspiration was a sticker book my kids used to have when they were younger.
I LOVED this gorgeous turquoise one!
My colors here are Tempting Turquoise, Pacific Point, and Tuxedo Black Mememto.
(BTW, I JUST realized I've been spelling Mememto wrong all this time!!) :/
Ok, so I have a "job"for you….
As I mentioned, I adore this set.
This butterfly has 3-steps: base wings, wing tips and the dots & burst (black.)
What is YOUR vision of a good combo of colors??
**Comment below with 3 (current) Stampin' Up! colors. I'll try [a few?] of them and pick my favorite. I'll send a pack of these Watercolor Wings cards with envelopes to the person who gave me my favorite inspiration.
NOTE: You WILL NOT WIN by choosing Rich Razzleberry and Blackberry Bliss as 2 of your colors!!! 😉 That's already in my wheelhouse! Give me something new. "Contest" ends midnight this Friday, 6/26. I will make cards this weekend and post the winner Monday. Good luck!! You may increase your chances at winning by submitting a new idea each day.
Ok, gotta go!
Have an amazing day!

I like the watermelon wonder, delightful dijon and memento black.
I am planning to get this set in July!
Thanks.
In honor of the 4th of July holiday … Rose Red Classic, White Stazon, & Night of Navy Classic.
I vote for Pistachio Pudding, Hello Honey and Baked Brown Sugar
Hey–I need to go update my post but I'm not near the computer right now….you can't win if you don't suggest current SU! Colors. Cuz I don't have them!!
I like a combo of reds oranges and yellows!
Pear Pizazz, So Saffron, and Early Expresso.
sorry for the retired colors in the last post!
how about soft sky, daffodil delight and soft suede
I love the bright colors of Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie (or even Tangerine Tango) and Memento Black (I've been spelling it wrong too…grrrrr!). These colors remind me of a lot of the butterflies we saw at Meijer Gardens this year! :0)
how about tangelo twist, pacific point and tip top taupe. those sound good to me?
Thanks for all the comments/suggestions, ladies! I'm excited to play!!
Soft Sky, Pink Pirouette and Wisteria Wonder- beautiful summer pastels.
