IHP Challenge ... Colorblocking

It's challenge day for the i{heart}papers team & today we are using the Color Blocking technique.  I was looking though a new idea book I have and found this fun layout ~ it's PERFECT for color blocking!  I was also really excited to use my new photo printer because I can now print text directly on my 12x12 paper ~ woohooo!

I decided to use this hysterical picture of my daughter for the layout ~ it seriously makes me giggle every time I look at it.  So with these colorful pictures I needed some very colorful pattern paper for the color blocking.  I decided to use some of the new Basic Grey Lauderdale collection.   I also used a variety of fun stamps from Technique Tuesday ~ Kids are Cool, Life in Pictures and Favorite Memories for the various words and phrases around the page.



Supplies from i{heart}papers:
Stamps: Technique Tuesday ~ Kids are Cool, Life in Pictures and Favorite Memories
Pattern Paper: Basic Grey Lauderdale collection
Ink: Palette

Now it's time to go see what the other girls made for our fun challenge:
