Color Challenge!

Last week's color challenge was to use: Pacific Point, Bashful Blue, More Mustard and Old Olive. I found these little paper bags that I got at a craft store. They are 3 1/4" x 6 1/2". Anyway, I got to thinking about them and decided to make a little paper bag book.



For the cover, I used Pacific Point layered with a piece of Bashful Blue dsp. Next I stamped the Rock Star stamp on Whisper White CS in both Pacific Point and Old Olive. I punched it out with my large star punch.


For the first set of pages, I used More Mustard DSP. I also used some of the chipboard from the On Board So Tweet. I colored the flower with Bashful Blue ink. The stem and leaves were colored with Old Olive. I added a Star brad for the center of the flower.






Next, I made these pages with Pacific Point CS. I added a strip of Bashful Blue or the right that i wrapped with striped Pacific Point ribbon. I added 3 stars that I punched out of More Mustard and Old Olive cs with the small star punch.









In the middle, I made these nice simple pages from Old Olive CS. I layered the left side with Whisper White CS. Both pages were stamped with the vine stamp, from the Fresh Cuts set, in Old Olive ink.







These pages are also pretty simple. They are Bashful Blue CS layered with a strip of Bashful Blue DSP. Next I added 2 flower brads - one on each page.








Finally, I wheeled the last pages with the Star wheel on Pacific Point CS in Pacific Point ink. I tied a piece of Bashful Blue Grosgrain ribbon around one side and that was it!

I still need to make the inserts for the pockets and then I will add some pictures of my two little rockstars!

I hope you enjoyed this! It was a fun project to make. However, when I made it, I was with my sister, so I am pretty sure that it was the company that made the project even more fun! Stamping with friends is always fun!

Enjoy!
