Warming Up to Yellow

As I've mentioned multiple times on this blog, yellow is my least favorite color by far.  That being said, I think this page might be slowly changing my mind.  I'm still trying to cut back on the massive amount of scrapbooking stash I have and decided to go a little crazy with the yellow flowers on this page.  I really like the way that they ended up looking.


I think being able to bring some black into play (which is one of my favorite colors) helped me tone down the yellow and endear me to it more.  I think it also gives the page a bit more dimension than it usually would have had.

Hiatus is Over

I really didn't mean to get as far behind with this blog as I have but I suppose that's just life.  I'm back (hopefully for good this time) and I made this page in celebration.


This page was really fun for me to make and I really like how it turned out.  I had fun using papers I love and getting to use some of my stash at the same time.  For awhile I had felt fairly uninspired but after my unintentional break I got some of my mojo back.  Plus, with it being as dreary out as it is this time of year, the bright colors really cheered me up.
