Default SBVC60...complimentary colors...1.21.09

SBVC60...complimentary colors...1.21.09

Good morning scrapper friends!

We are going to use the color wheel today. If you don't have one or are not familiar with using the color wheel, here is a site that will help color wheel . For this challenge you must use Complementary Colors.

Complementary colors are opposite each other on the color wheel. They can be any shade and if you are using patterned paper that has other colors that is fine as you need a little "spice" now and then, but your colors should be dominant.



my sample:

school days


Have a great week!

you can find all submissions for this challenge here: SBVC60



SBC's Information Thread:

Everything you need to know to participate!

The OPD (One Page Doc, aka: Master Challenge Thread) that includes all challenges on one page for your printing convenience can be found here: OPD

If you have any questions please feel free to contact any one of the SBCT (scrapbook challenge team)via pm or simply post your question in this thread.

As always, Peggy, I really like your challenge. I should be able to incorporate it into any page I manage to get done in the next week!

I just want to thank you, Peggy, for coming up with these challenges for us every week. I know I don't always get to do them, but I always enjoy what you come up with and do try to utilize them when I get time to scrap.

You da bomb! lol

no, I didn't. but she wants to loose her's so bad since a Pre-K friend has already lost her first tooth. peer pressure!

Okie doke, Peggy, here's my page:
Scolded

I used pink and lime as my colors, and I really liked sticking to just those. Normally I would have probably added a third (or fourth!) color but this is really nice. I didn't notice before that I almost always use the "coordinating" colors from the wheel, not complementary, so thank you very much for the new experience!

I finished mine! Wow, it's hard to use those colors if you are not used to working with them! So here's my walk on the wild side.

I've done 2 more pages for my dgs 1st bday (he's 5 now). Had each guest choose CS and write something to him and sign it. Then I took pictures of everyone to put on "their" page. Is a great way of having him remember those he doesn't get to see often. This challenge worked well since I had some odd colors to work with. TFL

I immediately chose red and green, so I could get these old Christmas photos scrapped. I could even figure out the year.

March Madness is good for looking for challenges. Here is one from a long time ago of DD in her first pair of heels at Easter.

EASTER OUTFIT

She was trying to be so grown up! Used the Pink and Green Complimentary colors for this one.
