Sharing Scrapbook Pages on Sunday

Colour me Scrappy (actually Color me Scrappy!) is a great source of inspiration with colours  and sketches... completely up my street.

I decided to complete CMS Challenge #53....
using the colours.......


and the sketch.....


to make another JYC page.....


I forgot to add the date before I took the photograph for this January page about saying goodbye to the elf after Christmas.  I am not sure when the challenge ended but it was obviously before January 31st as I had thought, as the linky was closed.  

I decided to combine the CMS Challenge with the weekly UKS challenge which this week was...
use ONE black and white photo
frame the photo
use bling 
use ink/mists 
use no more then TWO flowers 


Initially this was quite challenging as I didn't love the colours as I am not a pinky girl, I am also not a bling girl or a flower girl most of the time, yet I managed to add all the requirements to the page and ended up really liking it too!

  2. You've made the most of the blues in contrast to the pink, and it looks so well that I would never have guessed you were outside your comfort zone!

  3. I wondered how I might use those colours too Ruth, but you did well. I love the idea of having an Elf visit at Christmas, I hope yours gave you lots of fun.
