Thanks for stopping by for Color Throwdown 284! Barbara is hosting this weeks challenge! She has chosen pretty shades of blues and purples for us to work with this week.
I hope you get a chance to play along for a chance to be next week's Guest Star Stamper!
I used the colors in the challenge to create this scrapbook page.
I started by using the Mini Chicken Wire Stencil to add pattern to the background of the page. I used a combination of four different color inks and blended them together with a sponge.
At the right corner of the page I added few sentiments. "Surrounded" is from the Document It - Expand Your View Stamp Set and "LOVE" is cut with the Accent It - Celebrate Die-namics. The longer sentiment is from the Complimentary Greetings Stamp Set.
The doilies on the page are created with the Mini Delicate Doilies Die-namics.
I added a place for journaling with a stamp from the the Journal It - For the Record Stamp Set and cut it out with the Insert It - 3x4 Insert Die-namics.
The border is added with the Notched Border Die-namics.
