A Colourful 7 Dots Challenge

I fell in love with the new mood board over at 7 Dots Studio this month. It's full of pastel colours and gorgeous scenes. I was inspired by the colours of the mood board to create this layout using a photo I took last year.

I used the pinks, blues, greens and yellow-green from the moodboard, but made the colours a bit brighter to work with the bright pink flowers in my photo. I used the Verano Azul collection from 7 Dots to create this. If has such gorgeous colours.

To make the frame around the photo, I fussy cut one of the journalling cards from the collection and raised it up around the photo. I also fussy cut the title from another journaling card.

The background is a mix of sprays and paints and I've glammed up the waste from some Dusty Attic chipboard circles with paint and stamping.

I scattered mauve stars around the page which were punched from one of the Verana Azul papers. I'm not much of a mauve fan usually but I love this colour!

I took the photo of the window on the island of Cres in Croatia. We loved it there. The buildings were all painted in gorgeous pastel colours and windows with shutters like these were so beautiful!

The circles were made using the chippie waste piece as a stencil.

I hope you can join in the challenge this month. You can find the challenge here, and here's the gorgeous moodboard:

Happy scrappin'!
