SOL reveal

Color shy? Are there any colors that you stay away from....that you avoid like the plague when you are scrapbooking? That is this weeks challenge over at Scrapping out LOUD!. I chose to use yellow for this challenge....now, I have recently done two other layouts using yellow....but I had to really force myself to use it...it is just one of those colors that I would rather use on embellies, or in smaller quantities than as a background. I did a lot of machine stitching on this layout and even stitched on the chipboard. Also, I used a piece of fabric sheet and stitched around it and then dipped it in a Stampin' UP! reinker and let it soak in...if you click on the pg. you can see a better close up.Also, check out the wotw and the sotw for extra challenges and entries toward the prize this month.

Here are a few close ups....


and just a quick pic of my Forsythia that is blossoming....ahhh gotta love Spring!

Have a great day!

Super layout! I don't use yellow often either, another one I stay away from is purple. Hmmm, I should try this challenge.
