Color Combo Blog Hop~with a RAK!!!!

Welcome to the Color Combo Blog Hop!!!
If you arrived from http://scrapyourlife.net/  you are in the right place! If you are here and didn’t come from the previous blog, I am listing the hop below my post so you can go start back at the beginning if you wish! Glad you are here!!!!
 

These were our colors to work with this month and to be honest ~ I did lots of head scratching~tough one for me.  My colors are a little off but pretty close to the color palette I had to work with. I did a double layout and used a sketch by the fabulous Shimelle~


I used Fancy Pants/Hot Chocolate pattern paper, Bazzill cardstock, October Afternoon {bingo card} and American Crafts in the title.  I made the rosette's with the Tim Holtz die {love that}!!! The centers are made using Epiphany Craft's button studio ~ this one is the 25 round bubble cap.  I glued them in the center of the rosette's with Helmar 450 Quick Dry


the first page~

2nd page~


The butterflies are stamped using the Butterfly set by Darkroom Door!! This set comes with butterflies of all sizes and I like that.  Just what you need!!
