The Color Room #49 Lovely Memories


Honestly I don't know if I have done any justice to this week's 
 Color Room Challenge 
But here goes...

It is a totally gorgeous... but tricky palette to get the colors right....
And I think I have managed that part ok....
But honestly my LO just didn't turn out as I had hoped....
I don't know if it is because I'm not really a white space scrapper???
I soo want to splatter back ink on the spaces... but I just cant find the courage....
It's the only piece of that color pink cardstock I have....
And just think I would totally wreck it....
I so admire those that can and the layouts just look fabulous!!!

However ....I think this will definitely help me get over the depression of my LO....


Is celebrating 50 Gorgeous Palettes!!!

With a  
Blog Hop Not to be Missed!
We will be Hopping through the Amazing Designers Blogs, 
Seeing what they created with the 50th palette......
And there will be more fun to be had!
(Oh and the Hop will be open for the entire week, so there will be plenty of time to go through them.) 
Each Blog will have something to share and then its your turn to do the palette for the week.   
I am definitely looking forward to it :)
Hope you are ready to Hop!

Will be back tomorrow with a little bit of Shabby Chic.....:)
See you then....
