Firstly the 'Fauvism' challenge at For the Love of Pretty Paper asked us to use any two options from complementary colours, a single-coloured paper and a sketch by Lisa Sikorski, and I managed all three.
Secondly, Hey Little Magpie set a tic-tac-toe challenge, and I chose the left column - one photo, a border punch and stitching.
My single photo is one my husband took of our son eyeing up the cakes after a family funeral. My colour scheme was largely driven by the strip of tea cup paper, which is a branding strip that I thought was too nice to throw away. I considered rotating the sketch to suit a portrait photo better, but that tea cup strip dictated that I kept to the original version.
Aqua sits opposite peach in the colour wheel and I had a 6x6 floral paper that combined the two colours; the rest are all single colour papers.
