SAM Challenge - RED!

Well I suppose it is February and the month for Valentines!  When I found these photos of Olivia on her nineth birthday (and a beautiful red top that I used to love), I thought what a great opportunity to do some 'catch up' scarpbooking.

I've used allsorts on this layout.  The papers are from the Celebrations paper pack, the butterfly is from the new Sale-a-brations set - Bliss (this reflects her enormous butterfly birthday cake I made for her).  I've used the rock and roll technique to create the multi-coloured image.  The little dots are from the Extreme Elements set - I masked the butterflies and then using a Stamp-a-ma-jig I stamped the image a few times.

I've used the Big Shot to create a top note die for the embellishment, which is from the Hodgepodge Hardware range and the Timeless Type Junior alphabet for the title.  

The little ribbon details is just a few bits of red ribbon knotted around the white, with the date attached using a little safety pin from the trinkets set in the Summer Mini.

I think colour challenges are great .... have a look through your photos and see what you have that you can immediately use to scrapbook - black and white photos also look so good against a red background.  To enter the challenge click here to find out how.

Happy scrapbooking!
