Scrapping Outback & The Color Room Palette 50

Firstly Congratulations to THE COLOR ROOM on reaching 50 palettes and what a whole lot of amazing, colourful inspiration there has been over this time.

As a 'former Revolving Door Artist (RDA)' for weeks #11 - #14, I was so very excited and also honoured to receive an invitation to participate with this weeks special Palette.

We are in 'His Room' and it is a 'White Washed' Palette.


This is my take on it

'Believe'

You are beautiful inside and out

Now I have to confess to being a bit intimidated by this palette. These, by no means are colours that I generally work with and I had to do some serious... O.K major, stash digging LOL!

Fortunately for me as it turned out, the gorgeous Rach (Scrapping Outback) was my 'savior' as she had just sent along a couple of the Bo Bunny Midnight Frost patterned papers to work with for a Scrapping Outback product showcase. I combined these with a splash of Kaisercraft Airy Fairy 'Sparkle' and some cardstock.

Blooms are some older Prima Obsession combined with some of the new Prima Roses and Kaisercraft Paper Blooms - I have used coconut white (available Scrapping Outback) and sage. The bling is a Zva Creative Leaf flourish that I have cut up and the large hanging facet jewel is a Teresa Collins Blingage Maddie's Jewels - gosh I had no idea how big this was when I bought the packet LOL. These are also available in the Scrapping Outback store.

No surprises that I have also included some chipboard elements, both available from Scrapping Outback - chippie 'Believe' title and Dusty Attic Ornate Frame #1. I also added some of the new Kaisercraft sentiment rubons to the title.

So if you have made it this far - Thank You and Well Done!.

This week The Color Room are doing things a little differently. The palette has been revealed as usual, but instead of putting up the Design Team layouts on the main page, you will need to go on a BLOG HOP!

Your first stop is THE COLOR ROOM Here

Color Combo's Galore Challenge # 182

Howdy!

I have a layout share today that has been inspired by the Color Combos Galore Challenge #182.

This is the inspiration board

Photobucket

I have to say that I really enjoyed playing with the tone on tone aspect of the palette. When I saw this week's inspiration photo, I first thought 'Hubba Hubba -' these guys are heavenly on the eyes'. But rather than use fashion I have chosen the 'heavenly' aspect as my inspiration, I have scrapped a picture of my littlest angel. We think that she is of course 'heaven sent' and she will always be our gorgeous cherub.

This is my interpretation

'Cherub'

And a closer look

Photobucket

I have used a variety of patterned papers including Crate Paper, Creative Imaginations Die Cut, Webster's Pages, Prima and Kaisercraft (Up Up and Away). I have added some Kaisercraft blooms and paper roses (available from Deb's Creations), Prima flourish (thanks Kathie) and Zva Creative Leaf (available Deb's Creations), Kaisercraft Girl rubon sentiment and MME rubons and of course some much loved chippie - this time a Dusty Attic lampost and a word title both of which are available from Scrapping Outback. Think I have covered everthing LOL!!

Photobucket

Once again, lots of layering with different elements. The larger rose blooms are Kaisercraft's Paper Blooms - these ones are 'honey'. They are gorgeous as are the mini paper roses - these are available in Deb's Creations store.

I left the Dusty Attic Lampost in it's 'natural' state and inked the cherub title with Kaisercraft Sandstone Ink and then gave it a coating of frosted lace stickles. I also added some frosted lace stickles to the butterfly.
