PGC #6: Inspiration Challenge

Welcome back for another challenge from The Paper Girls Challenge.  This time around, Amber gives us this picture to use as an inspiration:

You can pick colors, shapes, tiles...whatever moves you from the picture.  I loved the tile affect, and I am warming to the colors.  They aren't my usual pallette, but seeing this picture made me want to use them.  Little did I know that the always AMAZING Kristy Lee had a sketch up her sleeve for the Amethyst 8 sketch for Scrapbook Steal's MWM that would work perfect for this challenge - and Authentique's Blissful, which was the steal to go with this sketch, was perfect for the layout I had.  Here is Kristy's layout:

And here is my intrepretation from Amber's picture and Kristy's sketch:

I love this picture of my not so little guy!  He was 19 month's old in this picture.  He looks so much older to me in this shot, with his intense look and skill at holding the screwdriver.  And when I got my steal of Blissful, I realized that it worked great with everything I wanted to do.  And I was able to use some scrap paper to cut the nuts - BONUS!  I also raided my hubby's toolbox for some washers to highlight the journaling.

I hope you enjoyed this challenge from The Paper Girls Challenge.  Just a reminder, you have until Friday, April 27 at 11:59 pm MDT to post your intpretations http://thepapergirlschallenge.blogspot.com/ for a chance to win some prizes.  Good luck and happy scrapping/card making!

Cheers!
