Challenge 6

So glad I didn't wait until the last minute to post this particular entry for Color Me Scrappy. My friend Grace over at The Scrapbook Bitch reminded me I needed to work on this challenge today while we were at Archivers.

My first thought when I saw this week's color palette was that basically that I didn't think I'd be able to find a picture to go with these particular colors. They were all just so bold that it was almost a little intimidating. Scrapping for me has always been about finding a unique way to display a picture or several pictures. I felt that these particular colors were just too overwhelming for my style. Don't get me wrong, these colors are beautiful! Just a little more intense than I usually work with.

But I plunged in head first and just started playing around with the colors. I made it work for me! I did work with a sketch that I had found in my Scrapbook Etc... magazine, though I did modify it slightly. Working with a sketch this time made it easier for me to concentrate on the colors rather than the layout. I'm very happy with my results today. I hope you enjoy it too!

Thanks for stopping by!
