Summer of Colour Round-up

Here are my 6 pages for the 2013 Summer of Colour challenge. I am pleased that I have actually finished a challenge. My favourite colour combination is number 5, although I do like the effect of number 4. The one I like least is the last one.

What about you - which is your favourite?

That is Summer of Colour finished for this year but put the date in the diary for next year

Summer of Colour Weeks 5 & 6

Now I'm back from my hols I am catching up with some unfinished summer projects. The first is Summer of Colour , The colours for week 5 were Candy Apple Red and Yellow. I used Inktense Colour Blocks for the background and then again used images from napkins.

Week 6 (and the last week) was Sage and Sepia, I used Distress Inks for the backgrounds (although the colours don't really show up very well in this photo) and more images from napkins.

Tomorrow I will post a photo of all six weeks for 2013 Summer of Colour.

Summer of Colour Week 4

This week the colour was Charcoal Grey and Pale Pink. I coloured the background with watercolour pencils then added the images using napkins and gel medium. Why not pop over to http://www.twinkletwinklelikeastar.blogspot.co.uk/ and see more creations.

Summer of Colour Weeks 2 and 3

OK I give in - I have no idea why my pictures are appearing on their side, I did not turn the camera when taking them. When uploaded to Picasa 3 they were turned on their sides - I then rotated them and they look fine on Picasa, but then turn themselves back on their sides when uploaded her. Any helpful ideas/hints would be appreciated.

Anyway for Week 2 of Summer of Colour the colour to work with was Orange and Hot Pink,

Week 3 was Lime Green and Purple. You can see what other people have done here

Summer of Colour Week 1

I hope you are all sitting down when you read this - I actually did some crafting last night!! I did my first page for the Summer of Colour - the colours were citron green and turquoise, I dont think the photo shows the colours very well but they are the right ones, or at least as near as I had to them.

I thought I would show you a photo of my new craft space - under the spiral staircase just outside hubbie's study. There is also a bookcase on the other wall which is filled with boxes. Now just to get some arty stuff on the walls to brighten the space up a bit.

Not quite the craft room that I had in my last house but I think it will do very nicely. Where do you do your crafting?
