Color Challenge Layout #3

Here's another layout I did thanks to Shimelle. This challenge was to use the color wheel and color theory to do a layout. Again, here is Shimelle's post for more information.

And here's my digital layout using complimentary colors.

Supplies: Template - Sketch Collection #26 by Jen Caputo; Papers - Art Greco Mini Kit by The Queen of Quirk; Fonts - Jefferson and Georgia

Using the color wheel is something that I don't normally do. So it was a nice change to start with colors in mind, then find supplies that work. I did have fun and I think that I will do more layouts using the wheel.

Color Challenge Layout #2

Today there is more color fun from Shimelle.
Check out this post to join in on this challenge. That post explains the challenge a lot better than I can.

I had a lot of fun spinning the color wheel at this web site.
Here's the color combo that I decided to use as the basis for my layout.


And here's my layout for today. The scan is a little washed out. It is a little brighter in real life. And it looks crooked, but it's not.


Supplies: Cardstock - American Crafts; Die cut paper - KI Memories; Letter Stickers - American Crafts and Making Memories; White pen - Ranger Inkssentials

That makes 2 layouts I've made this month. I hope I can keep it up for all of June.

A Month of Color thanks to Shimelle.

Go check out www.shimelle.com and join Shimelle for a month of color.


I was inspired to do this digital page for today's challenge.

Supplies: Papers - Playtime (retired) by Meredith Fenwick; Template - Scrap Canvas 10 by The Queen of Quirk
Rainbow Border - Kate Teague; Fonts - Diesel and MF Willy Nilly (retired)

I've been scrapping a lot with paper lately. And it felt good to do a digital page. I can't wait to play with color all month long.

Plans

So it's been a long time. I'm trying to figure out what I want to do here. One goal for this year is to get a plan all figured out.

Also on the list for this year are the following items.
1. Get fit with Wii Fit
2. Clean out my scraproom and get rid of half of the stuff in there.
3. Take more photos. Especially ttv shots.
4. Create more. Digital pages and traditional scrap pages.
5. Have more fun.

So here's to 2009. I know you'll be a great year.

Yay! Digital Scrapbooking TV is back.

Last year, Jen Caputo debuted Digital Scrapbooking TV. It was a very good online "how-to" show.
I enjoyed watching the episodes she produced.

Then she bought a house. And if you have ever bought a house, you know how that can suck up all your spare time.

And then even worse, her laptop was stolen.

So the episodes tapered off.

Lucky for me, she's back. In a slightly different format. The episodes aren't as long. But really that's ok. I don't have a lot of time. So being able to sit down and watch a 10 minute show fits my schedule.

So go check out her latest episode. Episode 5
I can't wait to get those text paths. They look like they would be a lot of fun. And if you share the new, maybe you can win a set.

I just need to say...

crowdSPRING, hire Kelly Purkey for your new Community Marketing Manager!

I didn't have anything else to say today. But I can share a photo to took a couple weeks ago.
