challenge #4: color + plastic sleeves:
mellow yellow

plastic sleeve is from close to my heart. i put the embellishments right on top of the page vs. inside the sleeve

jb cream rub-ons from this june's SC add-on kit #2 luckily i still had some yellow lullaby thickers left, that "e" is actually a "c" :)

the cork letters are mm (clearance from michael's!)

thanks to r - he did all the collages for me!
*note to self: LEARN PSE!
man, oh man, this challenge took me forever! i first started with brown, wanting to work around the "happy scrapping" cake photo; then i changed to red b/c of one of emma's project red jackets. i was going to attempt to be clever by doing things "red" -- well "read", inspi(red), da(red), yeah --lame idea. i finally decided to go with yellow & center it around one of our many trips to disneyland. this was fun, but a bit stressful (as usual, lol).

can you tell i'm struggling with trying not to be 'matchy'? i guess that's something i'll learn with time. i went with the polka-dot yellow paper b/c it reminded me of minnie mouse's red polka-dot skirt :)

  1. I LOVE this! I love the yellow, the photo collages, the thickers mixed with the cork alpha, the page protector & the cork star! There is no way you struggled with this - it all came together so nicely. I love how we all do these challenges so differently :) xoxo
