Color Combo Challenge #95

(11/03-11/09)

Please welcome our Guest Designer this week, Anne-Marie Teo!

Hi! My name is Anne-Marie and I'm a SAHM living currently in Switzerland till Dec 2008. My family and myself are from sunny Singapore but we've had the awesome opportunity to live in Switzerland the past 8 months. My two children, Ethan (8 years) and Hannah (6 years) are my constant inspirations.

I have been scrapping for close to 5 years now and I'm still enjoying every single moment of it! I love that it is such a creative outlet for exploration and personal expression. I like that there is no right or wrong, no 'should's or 'should not's... just personal, heartfelt artistic expression. I feel a sense of release and accomplishment when I create and all the more, when my creations are able to inspire others.

I like to capture the 'moment' in my scrapbook pages. As such, my photos and the story I want to tell are usually the starting points for me. I love mixing colors and patterns and adding an eclectic mix of embellishments.

Anne-Marie, I just love your style! All your pages are always spectacular, we are so honored to have you here with us this week! Get a closer look at Anne-Marie's amazing pages on her blog!!

Now let's play!! Anne-Marie wanted to use a dark orange and tan. So here is your combo!
Can't wait to see what you create with these colors!

Color Combo Challenge #92

(10/06-10/12)

Please welcome our Guest Designer this week, Stephanie Howell!

My name is Stephanie Howell, I live in TX with my 2 year old Harper and my 8 month old, Sadie. My husband is currently on month 3 of a 12 month deployment to Afghanistan.

I have been scrapbooking for about 3 1/2 years. I was given a copy of Creating Keepsakes by a friend I taught with, and that is what did me in. I had always thought of scrapbooking as stickers and photos cut into shapes before that day. I never looked back!

I design for Studio Calico kit club, Websters Pages, and Prima Marketing. I have been published in Creating Keepsakes, Simple Scrapbooks, and Scrapbook Trends. At the core of it, though, this is my fun, my creative release. It's a hobby to me, and one that has kept me sane.

When I'm not scrapbooking, I'm with the girls having tea parties, playing dress up, or store. I also love to hit up the flea market and if you ever visit my blog, you'll see I display vintage treasures just as often as scrapbooking pages.

Thanks so much for this wonderful opportunity, I had so much fun with this challenge!

Well we all love your work Stephanie, thank you so much for being here! Get a closer look at Stephanie and her designs on her blog!!

Now let's play!! Stephanie's choice of colors were yellow and gray.
Can't wait to see what you create with these colors!

Color Combo #92sunflower - alabaster - charcoal gray - silver
