The Summer of Color 3: Artist's Choice . . .

(Web source) 

"The world is a carousel of color." -- Anon


We're just three little weeks away from The Summer of Color 3: Artist's Choice! 

Just three little weeks away from creativity & connection with over 100 weekly participants. Just three little weeks away from 6 weeks of vibrant, luscious color prompts. Just three little weeks away from fabulous, drool-worthy giveaways. Just three little weeks away from colorful conversations with new friends and old. Just three little weeks away from  . . . . well . . . . I'm not telling. But don't worry, you'll only have to wait just three little weeks more . . . .

Itching to get started? How about a quick personality quiz to tide us over:

What Color Are You?

Come on, tell me. I'd love to know . . . .




Colorful Kisses,
Kristin xo

    That WAS a fun quiz - thank you for sharing it. I came out as Light Cyan. I'm more drawn to the saturated versions of this color, but it's pretty. :)

    Fun quiz. I came up as light cyan, which is a colour I've been drawn to lately as I'm simplifying and the bright colours I usually love feel too strong for me right now!

    Looking forward to this year's summer of colour! I did the quiz and i'm light sky blue which is weird as i just convinced my husband to paint round our cottage windows with that exact colour and it looks fab! Must've been a sign ;0)

    Can't resist a fun color quiz!!
    I am turquoise - Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well.

    Your saturation level is higher than average - You know what you want, but sometimes know not to tell everyone. You value accomplishments and know you can get the job done, so don't be afraid to run out and make things happen.

    Your outlook on life is bright. You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and it frustrates you to see them get down on everything.

    Hey Kristin! I got your reply on my blog, but I wanted to tell you I think you might accidentally have it bookmarked wrong or something? I keep getting your replies on an old post from back in March. :)

    Hi Guys!

    I am SO sorry, but I'm going to enable word verification for a few days to see if that gets the multitude of spammers I've been experiencing off my tail. I will change it back to no verification ASAP.

    Thank you for understanding,
    Kristin xo

    Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well.

    Your saturation level is low - You stay out of stressful situations and advise others to do the same. You may not be the go-to person when something really needs done, but you know never to blow things out of proportion.

    Your outlook on life is bright. You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and it frustrates you to see them get down on everything.


    OH GOODNESS. Yesssss!! :) And it's a fabulous color that I love!

    I am light cyan; which is a combination of blue and green. This is one of my go-to color combos when I am creating! The personality analysis was pretty much spot on. Fun quiz!
