Be Colorful . . . for Challenge YOUrself and Art Journal Journey!

 Hi everyone. It's June 7th and time for a new challenge at Challenge YOUrself!

 

June's topic is this beautiful mood board!: 

I was inspired by the gorgeous sunset photo, the beach, and of course, the pinks on the mood board.  Here is the photo that I knew I wanted to scrap when I saw the mood board.  Anne and I were standing on the boardwalk of Atlantic City while John took the photo in August of 2017! 

Here is my completed page:
 
I loved making this mixed media journal/scrapbook page.  As soon as I saw this challenge, I knew that I wanted to make it about a beautiful sunset! I used Vicki Boutin's gorgeous papers and embellishments to make my page. I love that vibrant shade of pink!!!
 
Sharing some different views of my project:

 
 

 
I hope you get a chance to check out Challenge YOUrself this month. I had a lot of fun using the mood board as the inspiration for my page.

I am also linking my project to Art Journal Journey, Monthly.

 

This month's theme is FISH and is hosted by the talented Mia of Craftartista.  Although my page is not about fish, if you look closely, you can see colorful fish on the card next to Anne's and my photo.  The fish are courtesy of Echo Park paper!  

I want to thank Mia and AJJ Monthly for the wonderful challenge.

And thank YOU for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you have a wonderful June!

    I am running very far behind. Your use of that photo fit perfectly with the design mood board. I love how you managed to incorporate the design and the photo with Mia's fish theme at Art Journal Journey. This turned out great!
