Colour Challenge Fun!




Hi all! 
Hope you're all having a fabulous day! 
I've been having a bit of fun with the colour challenge over at Color Me Scrappy. 

This particular entry is for challenge #61, a  really sweet colour palette to be inspired by.


 & Here's my layout.....

Love this page! 
I wanted to steer away from a classic girly page (like these colours might suggest) and do something more contemporary....
I had these fabulous beach photos and thought, why not? 
Beach can be shades of mauve?! (surely??)

I used a mix of Basic Grey papers from Hey Girl, Hey Boy & Soleil & tried to keep the embellishments organic and natural. Burlap, plain chipboard, muslin, calico & of course, those stunning shells!


A coupe of small Kaisercraft mini roses soften the page, and the calico trim is stapled in place to keep with the organic feel.
Wow! I had so much fun over at Color Me Scrappy! Why don't you join in the fun too?!
Can't wait to see what you create :)

Thanks for visiting,

Happy Arty Days,
Amanda xo
