Celebrating 8 years of Scraps Of Color (Day 1)

Welcome to SOC's 8th Anniversary Blog Hop! I'm glad you stopped by for the celebration! If you're dropping by from Cyndi's blog, then you're in the right place! However, if you started here, you can visit the SOC E:spire blog to join this party from the beginning!

To commemorate Scraps of Color's 8th birthday, I, along with some talented papercrafters, have teamed up to share projects based on the celebrations in our lives. We wanted to have this special blog hop to celebrate this great crafting community where we laugh, play, and create together and encourage and inspire one another. Of course, a blog hop isn't complete without blog candy! There will be giveaways on various blogs throughout the hop! Plus there will be a SOC blog hop gift awaiting one visitor!! To be eligible for that prize, you must comment on all the blogs by Monday, Oct. 8 at 11pm EST. From all who are eligible, one lucky reader will be randomly drawn. The winner will be posted on all the participating blogs on Wednesday, Oct. 10.

I want to wish Scraps of Color a Happy Anniversary.  8 years.  In celebration of occasion, I am part of a blog hop.  This for the Blog hop, I made something in celebration of Breast Cancer month, which is October.  Pink is the signature color and I love the color pink.  So I created this one-page layout today.

I used my stash, because I did not have time to run to the store.   I used black cardstock for the background and DCWV's Lace and Linen for the accent papers.  Instead of taking pictures, I grabbed some pictures I had on my computer that were pink.    

The tag in the corner is from a swap I participated in, and it talks about love, and gives a definition of word.   

Last I put a prima butterfly and some recollection pearls on.  I lightly colored the pearls with a copic marker #RV23 (pure Pink).  

The writing says: "I am a girly girl, but yet, I am all woman."   A girl cannot have too much pink in her life."  "I love the color Pink."


I hope you enjoyed today's quick layout.  I will be back tomorrow with something new.  Your next stop is Kristen  

Have a blessed day.
