Gutless!

Wednesday, October 10, 2012

Wow, I have been in desperate need of some MoJo! I haven't had consistent time to scrap lately and it's really taken it's toll on my creative flow.  I try to browse scrappy sites and blogs daily, so I don't lose touch, but I guess it hasn't been enough.  However, while browsing, I found a challenge site called Black with Two.  Normally, I don't do well with color challenges, but this months combination of black, with lime green and orange was something I could work with!  I also have to say thanks to my friend csescrap13 who is hosting the weekly challenge over at Club CK. She posted a wonderfully  inspriring sketch by Scrapbook Generation that was my starting point!


There is nothing better for halloween photos than black, orange and green!  I think I did a good job with the colors and of limiting use of white.  I keep my Halloween stuff separated so it was easy to find what I needed.

I pulled out some SEI and Echo Park  PP. The Jacks were an SEI border that I cut and separated. Fiskars and EK Success scallop punches I think feel like the round ridges in the pumpkins. Some WRMK, Queen & Co, and Target washi tape flags on some Doodlebug twine ties it all together.  AC Thickers and Doodlebug letter stickers made the title.  Lately, I can't leave a page alone with out mist of some sort. Today I tried some Fireworks.  Not sure how I feel about it yet.  It is supposed to dry opaque, we'll see.  One of my favorite things?  SoufflĂ© pens for the journaling.  They are so awesome for writing on dark paper and I don't use them that often.
