title: seaborn color_palette as matplotlib colormap
body: <p>Seaborn offers a function called color_palette, which allows you to easily create new color_palettes for plots.</p>
  
  <pre><code>colors = ["#67E568","#257F27","#08420D","#FFF000","#FFB62B","#E56124","#E53E30","#7F2353","#F911FF","#9F8CA6"]
  
  color_palette = sns.color_palette(colors)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to transform color_palette to a cmap, which I can use in matplotlib, but I don't see how I can do this. </p>
  
  <p>Sadly just functions like "cubehelix_palette","light_palette",… have an "as_cmap" paramater. "color_palette" doesn't, unfortunately.</p>
