Getting Creative with Colour Palettes +free digital kit

I want to share a website I came across. This website was the colour source for the scrapbook kit that that I am posting as a free download.

Sometimes I find the hardest part of scrapbooking is choosing a colour palette. It's the first thing I decide on as I create a kit, and being stuck on my first step is pretty discouraging. Whenever this happens I usually search out some finished layouts for colour ideas I wouldn't normally chose. This time I searched colour palettes and came across this website called COLOURlovers

There are tons of user created palettes to chose from. You can even sign up for a free account to mark your favourite colour combos. There are probably a ton of features that I haven't even come across yet. Honestly, when I found this palette called Wildflower Whimsy and had to get started right away.

I'm not sure if I would ever come up with this colour combination, but I think it's great and had a lot of fun putting this kit together (and I hope it shows!).
I didn't bother with downloading the palette to PS option this time. It was quick enough to copy the HEX and enter them into Photoshop Elements by double clicking the colour selection. I think the download option will be useful as I get more familiar with the site.

Anyways, I thought that this website is a great resource for digital scrapbookers...so check it out!

Enjoy the free download...
