Kraft + June

Pink isn't my favourite colour, it's blue.  But over the last 8 years of scrapbooking, it's the colour I seem to use the most, as I have two girls and it's their favourite colour and it's a girly colour.
So naturally it's a colour I have a lot of in my stash and I figured I may as well go with pink for this challenge knowing I had lots to use.
As it turns out, by the end of the layout, I hadn't actually used as much pink as I thought I would but I do like the way it looks.
I chose photos of Chelsea this year at Easter.  She got to chose her Easter treat and she chose a pink pig called Truffles.  The photos show her first initial bite into it.
I had recently got the burlap and lace trim so wanted to use that, and the small flowers are also new.
I added more white almost than pink, maybe I was trying to contrast the pinkness of the photos!!

White with 1 April challenge

Image
The colour for the month of April is Toffee Crunch, a nice light brown colour. I flicked through some of my older photos and found this one, from a camping trip my husband and I went on back in 2009.  Looking at other photos from the same day, I still can't figure out where we were at the time we took the photo!! We were on a lovely beach, water flowing down the sand and we found these little bird feet marks in the sand. I have used some stamping and stenciling, some burlap behind the photo and chopped up some letters to get the ones I needed!  :)

White with One February

Image
The colour for February at White with One is Sizzling Pink. Having two girls to scrap I have plenty of pink but not much that sizzles so much of the layout is more soothing than sizzling. I decided once I saw that it was pink, that I wanted to use some of the many pink buttons I have in my stash, so I have made a circle of them, alternating light with dark. I recently got some lovely chipboard swirls and inked them pink, but realised it was too light.  So I found a sizzling pink nail polish and used that instead.  Sometimes you have to think outside of the box to get the colour you want!!

White with 1 July

Image
I used one of my purple gelatos with some water to create the shaped border.  I punched out the butterflies from some paint samples I had used for another challenge months ago and added some bling. The page behind the photos is the same gelato on a page from an old book, with a few flowers and stickers added on. I even managed to figure out a word for the title from some shiny purple alphas I have.
