Hmmm.
Coral and Rust Brown.
Salmon and Cinnamon.

1) 45 Kelly and 65 Baby Pink
2) 03 Sun and 61 Iris
This is a wonderful giveaway!
I would make my case with bright orange and pink, can i have one more?? i add cobalt!
thanks!
i'm loving yellow right now, and while i like it with grey, as is so trendy right now, i like a little more color. bright yellow and raspberry is my favorite combo!
Cobalt and fuschia are beautiful. They create a color block perfect for the fall and can be used together through the spring 🙂 ahhh color!
Leaf and Lilac! or Seagreen and Nutmeg…or…

I think turquoise and chocolate would make a beautiful kindle cover. What a great giveway! Thanks for giving your readers a chance to win such a fantastic prize.
Dark Orange and Magenta,
Kindle fire, coooooool
Thanks
Deep magenta and sky
wow- what a great giveaway!!! I love sun and fuchsia. j dot laugelli at gmail dot com. I'd love to win!!! Thanks for the chance.
This is definitely a hard choice! I love dark orange and turquoise, but also sun and fuchsia and a lot more.
You are always inspiring, thanks!
I'm going to have to go with Steel and Fuchsia. It would depend on my mood as to which I'd like to have be the outside of the case!
Periwinkle and Spring:) yummy happy Holidays to all!!!
Cerulean and Sunshine- reminds me of Pride and Prejudice (the movie version with Keira Knightly). The blue is so calming, and the gold reminds me of early summer evening.
Seagreen and iris. Reminds me of a Tiffany window.
I love lavendar and bubblegum. What beautiful felts!
I would say sun and moss or sun and dark orange. Both equally gorgeous to me.
raspberry and light grey, without a doubt….helps me purge the holiday colors and make way to warm snuggly February…
Great to see these wonderful books go digital! I love dark orange and bright pink 🙂
Hmmm . . . I'm a green girl, so I'd probably choose something like grass green with bark. Need to get into your warehouse to see these in person! Thanks for the contest. 🙂
My two favorite color combos are:
1) Raspberry & Charcoal
2) Sun & Lapis
I think the Pea Green and Carnation would be very fresh looking together. I thought I had enough knitting books, until I saw the impressive list that is pre-loaded on the Kindle Fire, and realized that I had none of those! Now I KNOW I don't have enough knitting books….
light grey and fuchsia. thanks for a great giveaway!
That would be a pretty great Christmas gift.
Grass green and spring
I love all the colors and it's hard to pick two colors. But my favorites are sea grean and spring. Thank you for the chance to win this great prize. The felt tech cases are gorgeous!
Bright yellow and khaki; peach and pea: those are my favourites.
What a great post and so many ideas! Merry Christmas to all
I would love a kindle! Melon and ochre look beautiful.
Merry Christmas and thanks for a great site
I like the coral and the kelly green together – a twist on the classic red and green.
I've been drawn to gray/yellow combinations I've been seeing everywhere. So I'm going to pick the light gray and bright yellow.
So hard to pick favorite colors! I think I'd go with Sky and Bright Yellow.
Mouse and Bright Yellow please!
My favorite color combo is bright pink (27) and turquoise (51). Thank you for the chance to win!
such a hard choice! I love beachy colors, so perhaps I pick khaki and sky. There isn't a beachy green to choose from, and they are all so lovely!
fabulous color choices, I would choose pea and moss. lovely greens.
hey there! my favourite colour combo is steel/bright yellow! thanks for the daily inspiration!
I'd love to see Navy and ecru
but bright pink and deep magneta is wonderfully bright, too.
Magenta and Coral…. Nice and Warm!!!!!!!
Navy and Seagreen – yummy combo!
And wouldn't they look so nice wrapped around a Kindle :^)
1. chocolate and raspberry
2.sun and spring
Sun & Sky win hands down!!
I like pea and ecru. I'd love to win this Kindle and make the cover–so cute!
oh- Love this idea!! I would pick hands down the #37 Light Grey and #64 Raspberry…they are on my wish list for Santa too!!!
Love this blog and craft ideas- wishing you a great holiday!!
Such a cute idea! Wonderful colors! Thank you for offering this wonderful giveaway.
