Polar opposites: cheery yellow and intense gray.
And perhaps exactly because they come diametrically opposed--I will admit an infatuation.
After all, opposites do attract.
So infatuated that I decided that yellow and gray projects would be perfect for the March/April 2009 Moxie Fabs column.
Look at this "fab" little number from trendy card maker Teri Anderson using Moda Bella papers from American Crafts:
(For more moxie fab yellow and gray projects, go to pages 24-26)
I mean, this color combo is rich and fun at the same time. Check it: From Anthropologie:
Sequined Sweater Tank & Margo Faux Denim Pants
From Etsy:
PKT Bubble Notebook from Chikabird
Phew! That's one wonderful dream!

You left off Cosmo Cricket's incredibly beautiful EverAfter! I am totally this color combo!
Hi Cath,
Here's a yellow and grey card that I made awhile back for a Valentine Card Class that I'm teaching.
I had a feeling we'd be seeing the yellow/gray combo here soon! :) I LOVE all of your pics! Mmm! I almost bought that bracelet last week! :)
Here's a set of coasters I did using the yellow and grey color scheme, along with another very popular trend...poppies!

I am happy to say I was moxie fab before I knew it! I knit a baby sweater for my daughter in 1985 using Pingouin's Pingorex Baby Fantasie color 501 (which is white with yellow & gray flecks) It was beautiful, I only wish I had a picture.
Just wondering if we are limited to one project for this challenge? I'm so inspired I have two things I'm going to make. Do I need to choose just one? LOL. That will be tough. Thanks for a great blog!
I can never get the gallery to post right, so I have posted my card on my blog. Thanks for the challenge...it was definitely out of my comfort zone!
Here's my card!

Hi Ladies,
I'm glad that you're having so much fun with this challenge! I do think it's a combo that grows on you, but once it settles in your brain, it feels really nice.
Thespa, you absolutely can submit more than one project to the challenge. Upload your heart out!
Good luck, and I can't wait to see all of your projects!
Okie Dokie, Here's a link to the post on my blog Gruvi Things Gallery, for the Yellow and Gray Challenge. http://gruvithings.blogspot.com/2009/02/yellow-and-gray-challenge-for-moxie-fab.html
(I had trouble uploading photos to post to the group so hopefully I'm doing this right) What a fun and very challenging challenge for me. Thanks!
Ok, this has been way too much fun! You were right when you said this color combo really grows on you. I haven't had this much yellow in my brain since high school when I learned to play The Beatles Yellow Submarine song on guitar, LOL. That was stuck in there for a while. And no I'm not really from that era, I was just born after my time, LOL. So here is another project I made for the challenge. Hope you guys enjoy it!
Check it out here!
I LOVE all the inspiration!! We were just in Spain and everywhere we looked we found yellow and gray! Lots of Coral/pink and gray too. So fun!
Here is the link for my card:

I'm not a lover of gray, but am crazy for yellow. Surprisingly, I'm in love with this colour combination. I'm definately going to create for your challenge after seeing this!
What a fun combo & such delicious examples. Here's my card:
