2013 Artisan Entry Blog Hop: Day 8


 Day 8 of the 2013 Artisan Entry Blog Hop!  Now it is time for scrapbook pages, where my creativity really took a vacation.  ; )  As did my photography skills.  

And in the spirit of full disclosure...my least liked entry.  This was the last one I finished, since I put off the scrapbook pages to the end.  I even hesitate posting this!  ; )

I had taken pictures of the walking trail and state park near my home last fall and used those pictures as the focus.  This page is traditional scrapping with Naturals Composition paper as the background. Istamped  French Foliage in varying colors all over the background and blended them together, trying to mimic fall colors.

Sorry but it is a bad picture!


Here is one of the three pictures I used;  I drew my inspiration for the colors from here, gumball green, melon mambo and so saffron.  




 Please stop by all the ladies blogs and see all the creative submissions!  You can follow the list below, or use the shortcuts below for the next or previous blogs.




Thanks for looking!
