Please welcome our Guest Designer this week, Molly Peckham!
Please welcome our Guest Designer this week, Molly Peckham!
First off, I just want to extend a HUGE thank you to Janet, and all the girls here, for allowing me to be the guest designer this week! :D I had so much fun playing! :DI am a SAHM of two wonderful boys, Brendan, who is 6, and Alexander, who is 4, and our spitfire of a daughter, Caitlynn, who is 1. I am married to a wonderful and very supportive husband, Paul, who is in the Navy. We have been for married 8 years on March 17th. Currently we are living in Hawaii (yeah, I tend to not believe it, either, especially since I am soooo use to cold weather).
I have been scrapping for 7 years, and love every minute of it! I love creating these pages for my family and love to see their reactions when I do a page for them. But what I love most about this hobby has been the people that I have met and the feeling that I get when I have finished a layout.
I have been published in PaperKuts, Scrapbook Trends, NanC and Company, Scrapbook Answers, and Cantana Books, as well as being on the design teams for Work In Progress, Simply Cardstock and Everlasting Keepsakes. I also am very lucky to be able to work with Janelle Richmond on her sketch blog, Sketch This, and have also been asked to work with Patti Hutchinson, and her sketches, called Phutch Sketches. Can you tell I am a bit obsessed with sketches .
Besides that, I am also a photographer, and have recently opened up my business on the island of Oahu (very scary for me, but I am ready!). To say I have been busy is a bit of an understatement...lol!
Again, I just can't thank Janet enough! :D I hope that everyone likes this weeks colors. :)
Thank you so much, Molly! Your layouts are always ROCKIN'!

Ooooo! Loving all this inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI just found this CB through SIStv and have a quick question:
ReplyDeleteDo the colors of my LO have to be exactly those of the challenge? I mean, are those specific product color names or can I hold a piece of paper up to my computer screen to compare and use it if it looks the same but has a different name?
I love this challenge idea!
Hi Believe in Magic and welcome to the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI started naming the colors because I would be asked is that a fuschia or magenta? Heck, I don't know the difference! So I started using Wikipedia and if I don't find a close match there, then I will use myperfectcolor.com. Maybe I should use Bazzill colors instead?
Yes, holding it up will work. You can also print out the swatch, or even use your photographic memory, LOL! Whatever, but do use those specific shades and even if the colors are "not in your comfort zone", try it anyway, you may surprise yourself!
looking forward to your layout!
Here's mine:

Hi everyone! I finally got a chance to play again last night, and when I saw this week's colors, I knew they were perfect for these photos that I'd been wanting to scrap.
