Colour Combos Galore #199

Hello everyone,

How has your week gone?  Mine as usual was full of the everyday things minus 1 child...yep Riley spent the week at his grandparents place...he had so much fun that he didn't want to come home!!! But we are all like that when we are on holidays hey...never want them to end.  Anyway he flew home this morning, so we have been busy catching up :)))) Haven't had much time to scrap this week apart from a few DT commitments but I did do this layout!

Its for the latest Colour Combos Galore colour palette.....totally gorgeous combination of colours!!

Now did you know that July is National Ice Cream Month? We're kicking off this fun celebration with a cheerful, spirited palette. Our Designer's Challenge is inspired by the quirky lettering on the colorful ice cream bowls in the Inspiration Photo.

Recreate the uneven, the staggered look of these letters with letter stickers, stamps, rubbons etc etc. Just remember this is optional and you can also use bits of black, white and kraft with these colours.


Pink!..... I have wanted to scrap and record this for a while now...Riley's love for the colour PINK!...hmmm...I am sure later in life he will be so unimpressed with this but I couldn't help it.

Anyway, you will notice my title is a staggered a little and I used some old rubbons (a good way to use them up!!) as my background.


Cute little yellow flag from A Lil Somethin' and the bird pin from The Chip Chop Shop.




I would really love to see you all have a go.  The Design Team have really out done themselves...head on over and check it all out.

Hope you are all having a beautiful day...
Have a great weekend :))
