A Couple of Fun Pieces

I had to post the Monday Muse challenge today at Create My Keepsake. The challenge was to not worry about matching but scrap colors you love. Well, I am the matching queen so this challenge was difficult for me. So, I decided to take the Crayola route and scrapbook lots of colors. In my layout I used white, ecru, pink, red, blue, yellow, green, brown, and orange. With this picture had I not done this challenge, I would have totally gone pink. I also used many manufacturers too: Bazzill, Tinkering Ink, Making Memories, Heidi Swapp, American Crafts, Doodlebug, Creative Cafe, and Scenic Route! It was so fun to scrap this way, and I may have to take the challenge again! I hope you feel inspired, and try this challenge yourself!
Then for one of my design team pieces at Inspire Me Card Kits, I created this treat box for my friend Carrie. She loves M&Ms so I pray she enjoys this! I used an old Stampin Up box. Now I am on the hunt for some more! If you know where I can get some, let me know. :)
Thanks for stopping by and looking today! Have a joyous week!

    I just sold some old Stampin up stamps sets on Craigs list. I started to keep the boxes. I wish now that I had. :>) This is soooo cute.

    Both of those projects are great. I love the colors on the first one. I am kind of "matchy" too, but I LOVE this page.
