My take on the color room challenge this week,the colors were very pretty.

The color challenge for prima this month was based on there 4th July celebration it is similar to our Australia day.Thanks for looking.

i was featured on the coloroom this week

This layout was featured on the color room this week to my surprise.I really did struggle with these colors so some times it does help to give yourself a push and do something you wouldnt normally do.This coming weeks colors are so pretty cant wait to scrap them.

Just because

I love these pics of Mikayla,she is just walking along talking to herself like she always does.
I have done some misting on this and loved how it turned out.Thanks so much to everyone that leaves comments i really appreciate it.Have a great weekend Kerry

The color room and a few pieces of scrapmatts

The little tools and cogs are from scrapmatts they glimmermisted and i used gesso on them as well they really are cute.

The little insects are also scrapmatts.And the key and lock.

These colors this week were really hard for me i so do not scrap with these.I really liked the way they came together though.The picture was taken in England when i visited Travis last year.I really love all the old buildings and doors over there they have so much character.

123 challenge July and also scrap the girls.

123 Challenge for July COLOUR: TEAL
WORD: "THING" - could be anything, everything, something etc...
TECHNIQUE: Create A Scene
interesting do you think ?take a look over at the blog there is some amazing takes of this challenge.123 challenge blog

This is my take on scrap the girls this month.The inspiration was taken from the front cover of a PINK Cd.Take a look over at the scrap the girls site on the amazing design team there too.

Choose the colours, design, words whatever grabs you and use them to create your layout, girls only of course.AND you have to choose any song title or lyrics by Pink and use them anywhere on your layout,either as a title on your page or in your journaling.

So what are you waiting for go and try these two new challenges for July.Have a fab weekend i hope i do take care Kerry xx
