any room but the kitchen, no, ok the kitchen it is. That's the challenge at Scrap It Girl this month Kitchen color challenge. I have to be honest the kitchen is not my favorite room in the house for a couple of reasons. The first being this room has not been redone, the wall paper you see in the photo below is 20+ years old, uuuggghhhh! The second reason, I don't particularly like to cook, lets say if it would to go in a top ten list for me it would definitely rank eleven and finally no matter how many times you do the dishes there is always more to do!
I wanted to share this photo below because this was my inspiration (the wallpaper, ugh, I know) for my projects below and I wanted to share that this is my all time favorite dish. Yes that is a plate hanging by the red ribbon, yes the one with the big hole in it. Isn't it fabby? It is to me, not too many people have a plate with a hole in the middle. My son brought this home one day from school, they were doing ceramics and somewhere along the way something went wrong and his plate exploded in the center. He was quite disappointed and really didn't want to give it to me, I on the other hand loved it and thought it to be very special and this is where it hangs.
So for the Scrap It Girl kitchen color challenge I picked the majority of my kitchen colors which are blues, browns(wood), creams. I first made this card for the challenge but I still had some kitchen mojo left so....
I embossed the background then brayered the blue over it, love it |
... I made a page, same color combo of course
here you see some green added for the leaves there actually is some green in the wallpaper leaves |
