Last month I won the Yummy Palette Challenge over at the Scrap Friends blog.
Hence they invited me to participate in this month Yummy Palette #10
This is a picture of my kids sitting in front of our fireplace after a very cold afternoon. We came home a few weeks ago from school and found ourselves with a broken furnace. I took the kids to my parents house while my husband called a repair man. Thank G-d he was able to fix it on time and we came back home that same night. The house was still cold so we sat in front of our fireplace to warm up.
I struggled a little with this palette as I usually scrap with similar colored tones on my layouts. For example I'll make a blue layout and will incorporate different shades of blue, green or purple. Seldom do I combine so many different colors together so I struggled with the blue and pink hues. However I'm quite pleased with my result!!
I used 3 different 2 Crafty Chipboard pieces for this layout: Doilies, Title and Edith Frame
I truly love the quote from this chipboard title. Its one of my favorites!! I had to cut it out into pieces so I could spread it on my layout across the page.
I used these beautiful Pion Design Papers from the Grandma's School book collection.
Grandma's School book- School book PD2511B
Grandma's School book- Little Girl PD2501B
Grandma's School book- Blue Wings PD2504B
Alma's Sewing Room- Blue Room-PD3402B
Materials:
Papers: Pion Design
Flowers: Recollections, MHC
Chipboard: 2 Crafty
Crystals: Recollections
Martha Stewart Punched border
Fluid Chalk dark bark
Martha Stewart Satin acrylic paint: sand
Glitz designs script stamp
I hope you have a fabulous day!!!
