Happy New Year, everyone! May 2026 be a wonderful year full of scrapping opportunities for you all. I was invited to be a guest designer for Colorful Options this month, and I have to say it was a fun way to start the year! Their color board was monochromatic blue, not a strength for me, but hopefully I rose to the challenge as I found a bunch of blue items to put together my layout. The challenge is open all month, so feel free to hop on over and play along! Here's my layout:
Recipe:
Happiness Never Grows Old stamp set
Magnolia papers (MME)
Outdoor Denim & White Daisy cardstock
Sky, Outdoor Denim & Black ink
Star Spangled Blue marker
Birdsong Ephemera Bits (49 & Market)
Floral embellishments (The Paper Studio)
Teal enamel dots
Blue Adornaments fibers (EK Success)
Circle Double Stitched Steel dies (Art Impressions)
Challenges: Heart's Quest Challenge Blog #81 - 6 blue hearts; Little Red Wagon #839 Use the Force - I used force to die-cut the stitched circle and to stamp the leaves.


Fabulous layout! Looks like a fun day! Thanks for joining us at Little Red Wagon.
ReplyDeleteThe enamel blue hearts look great for little accents on your layout! Congrats! Thanks for playing along with the optional theme at HQCB #81. Hope your 2026 kicks!
