Shades Of Blue
Hi scrappers! I’m here with my first layout of August and with Color Dare challenge #664. I used some photos taken in Waikiki a few years back in front of the Hilton hotel. The water may look pretty and blue but it was actually an artificial lagoon that had quite a bit of sunscreen residue and other crud in it. I think it has since been drained which is good because the water was definitely a little gross! It just goes to show that a picture may not tell the whole story!
I found this really cool patterned paper in the depths of my stash called Turquoise Tiles by Recollections. Since the pattern was so busy, I balanced it out with some solid cardstock in various shades of blue. I had the perfect Vicki Boutin paper scrap with tropical leaves on it that I used as an accent and then added in various stickers that I got from Obujo. I especially liked the filmstrip stickers but had to put them over some pale cardstock since they were so transparent.
My title came from a Happy Planner sticker book and I added in some some pearlescent enamel dots by Craft Consortium.
Join us at Color Dare for challenge #664 and create a project with at least 2 shades of blue. I used a lot more than 2 and so can you! We can’t wait to see what blue projects you create!
I used sketch 319 from Sketch N Scrap with 2 photos instead of 3. I used 2 paper scraps for the details along the bottom along with some additional embellishments.
