Well, allrighty then ...

It appears we all DO see wide variations on the blush-and-ivory theme! (See last night's post for details.)
And, depending on your computer's resolution settings (and as Jenn mentioned, your own idea of the color wheel), you might see buttery-yellow and peach (not what I had I mind) or the cream and soft blush I was aiming for.
(Which by the way, is the blush you see in the image of the nest at right. On my computer it matches my outer border ...)
Theresa pointed out something I'd noticed, too - if I tilt my computer screen backwards, the color intensifies quite a bit - things become more peach and yellow. If I bring my screen forward the color lightens to the pretty pale shades I like.
And speaking of pretty pale shades, if you pop on over to Kristen's you can see a lovely rose picture she's posted. She'd like your opinion on what color you see. I see JUST the blush shade I was looking for ... now if only I could figure out its HTML code. :)
Anyway ...
Thanks so much for your time last night helping me out! I guess my blog will always look a little different to each of us, and as Bill pointed out, the old blue template probably did too!
I might not be done tinkering, but I do like these shades for now. I'll be at the craft store this weekend, though, and I'll probably get inspired in the scrapbooking aisle. ;)
Thanks so much, friends! Have a happy Friday! :)
PS. This is where I go to tinker with my color codes. Thanks to Jennifer for the tip (and the nest stickers!). Be warned - it's highly addictive!
