clever & adorable LOs!!

What a great challenge and wonderful examples! I really like your punched hole accents, Janet! 

Wow - love your samples. I wonder if I can convince DH to stop at Home Depot and pick up some paint ships for me??

Awesome!

Ooh, fun!  I gathered us a lot of paint chips at Home Depot yesterday....the saleswoman commented that I must be doing a lot of painting!  Now to decide what to do with them!  Cant  wait to see what everyone creates!

Paint chips are one of the "found" items I collect when I'm at paint stores. This will be a super fun challenge!  Love your examples!

Here's mine! I used a border punch on the paint chip and then used it as a layer.

I was worried I wasn't going to be able to find my paint chips and then I hit the mother load!!! lol

I used a butterfly punch, punching out several shades in pink.

I used the paint chips to make butterflies

Here's mine. I used paint chips to die cut the trees and behind the pictures.


 

Okay, so this is a little weird, now that I look at in on film, but it is what it is!  I used 17 Behr paint chip colors, layered them in color families, and glued them down on a scrap piece of cardstock.  Then I traced wavy borders and cut them apart, to spread them across the page.

Since I digi scrap, it was hard for me to change this paint chip, so I decided to scrap right ON the chip! Titled "What a girl wants!" 

How fun!  I punch snowflakes out of a blue paint chip, then punched circles around them.  I layered washi tape to circles and layered the negative snowflake circles on top.  I even used the blue snowflakes on my layout.





 

There is a good reason there are no photos on this layout yet - because the event hasn't happened yet!

In a couple of weeks, we'll be surprising our two boys with the news that all of us - including them - will be traveling to the UK the next day. They think it's just me going for my graduation! SHHH!!!

Paper from a UK company (Papermania). Flowers punched from paint chips!

 I used paint chips to make flowers and a border.

Wahoo! Thanks so much, Janet!

Congrats Deanna!
