Scrapbook Creations Magazine - Colour challenge

Hi my friends...

 

Today, I want to share a layout with you, that I did as a member of the 'colour Challenge team' at Scrapbook Creations magazine. Each month, the team are given a colour palette, we need to design a layout, featuring all those colours.....

The colour palette last month was very masculine, with lots of blues, and green... As you know, my style is quite shabby, and feminine, so I struggled with these colours a little.. but, once I completed the layout, I was pretty happy with how it turned out. A very different one for me, but, I'm sure my 4 boys will appreciate the lack of 'shabby girly' in it  :)

 

 

I've given my dies a good workout in this LO. My favourite die at the moment is this cool 'chain link' die (used to attach the stars to the rosette) 

 

 

 

Thanks for calling in, and for any comments...  I love to read comments, and always plan to visit everyone who takes the time out of their to write something.... but, time has been something I have been lacking sadly in the last few months... but, I have now reduced a lot of my scrapping commitments, out of necessity...  I was feeling overwhelmed by all I had to do, and wasn't loving anything about scrapbooking for a while there..  It was becoming a job, and a chore... I don't want that to happen, so, I've dropped a lot of things, and hope, now, to get the love of the craft back, and to be able to have the time to reconnect with all my scrappy online friends.. Thanks for sticking with me, and continuing to visit my blog, even though a lot of the time, I didn't reply to your lovely messages...  I promise things will be different from now on...
