Heart2Heart Challenge ... maybe I'm too Late :(

New Heart2Heart Challenge ... that apparently is already an old Heart2Heart Challenge! Anyway, here it is; sorry I'm late ... maybe someone could set me straight and let me know if we have all month to play or if it's just by the week.




So, yes, this is the ♥2♥ challenge but I think I'm a still a little stuck in the color splashing idea challenge from Play Date Cafe ... here's what I came up with. My new personal challenge is to complete a layout before I make a card so. These colors were more than difficult for me to work with but I gave it my all. I have had PhotoShop for over 4 years and rarely ever use it but was inspired by a post at PDC where the "artist", (we're all artists right!?!?) used a black and white photo and then just had one or two items in color. I have always wanted to do that! So I googled it and successfully did this photo in less than half an hour. I'm pretty impressed with myself.

Thank you for looking and especially thank you if you happen to be one of those kind and wonderful people that leave a nice comment. That is always very much appreciated. :)

PDCC70 ♥ The Play Date Cafe ♥ Challenge #70





I haven't been able to play in forever since we've had the whole interior of our house painted ... I had to completely dismantle my scrapbooking room and move it to another room ... along with all the other rooms ... what a disaster! Anyhow, haven't played in forever ... still don't have anything out ... BUT, made the most of it and found some old photos of the twins, a stack of paper and my ATG and went for it :)

I have been feeling really bad about my lack of scrapbooking lately ... have been so focused on making cards ... so I decided from now on I will really try and make a page or two first.

So, I made two layouts with the challenge colors and with my left overs and scraps, I made 4 cards. I know, I know, very basic ... BUT I did it with minimal supplies, (I don't have any inks or stamps out yet) and two very sick children under foot. So yay me.

Thanks for looking and have a delightful day! Maybe by next challenge I will find my stamps and ink pads :)
