TCR # 138 Summer Shoes

Drizzle and rain this grey Saturday in Stockholm. Feeling zero Chrissie vibes despite all the displays of bling and glitter everywhere. We'll put up our advent stars in all windows next weekend. I love the scent of hyacinths and buy them by the truckload. Cannot have poinsettias because of the cats, the white fluid in the petals is poisonous to them. Not a  tree comes up in a Swedish home till the day before 24 December.

Dear hubbs managed to lock me out from several sites on internet with his passionate quest for fool proof security measurements. Not that I don't truly appreciate his safety precautions but when I get kicked out from Facebook, Blogger and many other places, things get a wee bit, shall we say frustrating ... Back to business again now though and lots of commenting to catch up on. Visiting every day so don't give up on me if I haven't been to your blog in a while :))

Today I'll share my DT page for palette # 138 over at The Color Room, but first the palette itself. Neutral, dark, earthy and rich colours

 

I felt the rich muted colours needed a photo that adds more colour as contrast and found this one on internet. 

Here is my page "Summer Shoes";

 
The background paper is Basic Grey Serenade. Fell for the sweet birdies on a branch down to the right and the stripey borders.

 
At the moment am looking at what the Polish scrappers create and find inspiration from their messy stamping and wonderfully free artistic expressions. I am faaaaar from getting anywhere near them in my own scrapping but picking up little bits and pieces and adapting them to my own style.

 

 

 
The sticker alpha is from Basic Grey Lucille. Stamping from lots of different places.

 
Ripped some canvas and misted in TA Old Lace + Wheatfield + Walnut Gold. Found some beaded stickpins in a drawer. That bingo card is old as the hills.

  

And that's it! short and sweet this time! 

CSI released another awesome case file last night, I can promise the colours are beautiful! I'll be back on Tuesday to share my DT page for case file nbr 47.

Have a wonderful weekend wherever you are and whatever your plans are!!

Toodelipip! xoxo Eila
