This week's colors are as follows:
Red & Royal Blue
with a Smudge, Splash or Pop of Light Blue
I love these colors and thought they were perfect for my 4th of July photos! Yes, I decided to go with the patriotic theme!!! I took these at my cousin's annual picnic this year. Here are some pictures from the party:
My cousin's son just got a new puppy and everyone was enjoying him!
He even took an unexpected dip in the pool:
And everyone had a great time. Just look at all of the smiles:

ReplyDeleteI considered going patriotic, but I don't make scrapbook pages, so your art would have been better than mine, anyway. I love how you colored everything perfectly with the SOC colors, even before you got around to the scrapbook page. If I ever start scrapbooking, I'll be around for lessons! This is GORGEOUS!!
