We are also offering a chance at a Guest Designer spot for the month of August if you visit all of the blogs in our Blog Hop and participate in Challenge 200 by uploading your project to the CCG Gallery. It's so fun to get the colors before everyone else! Plus, who doesn't love to see their name in lights! The deadline for the chance to win these prizes is one week from today, Sunday, July 24, EST.

If this is your first stop at our Blog Hop, you'll want to start at Bente's blog, and follow the hop in order so you don't miss anyone. If you've been hopping in order, your next stop is Maiko Kosugi

As it's the 200th palette what about some fun. Leave a comment and on Sunday July 24, I'll randomly pick someone who get this prize from me: 

And now for this week's palette. I loved those colours from the start and I decided to make a layout and a card:

 

I love that blue patterned paper and really wanted to use it. I just love that little camera stamp and decided it would be the centre piece of my card. I heat embossed it to give it some shine. Next I added a sentiment stamp from Heroarts and to get all the colours from the palette on there I added two light blue brads.

And now my layout and it must be one of my favourites. 

When I created this layout I had different patterned papers lying on my scrap table. And in the end I didn't use them at all. I took out my Kesi'art stamps (French Brand) and stamp the circles with versafine Deep lagoon and sprinkled transparent embossing powder over it. I then heat embossed it. It gives it a nice shiny finish. The leaves I just stamped on and added some stickles. It's been a while since I used those. I added my photo, a border sticker, a rub-on from Lilybee and a stamp with the title. To finish it off I added some brads (lighter blue) and drew a border around my photo. Not a lot on my layout but that's how I like my layouts.

Thanks for stopping by and have fun with the blog hop.
