Be inspired by children's clothing: DSD Challenge #11

Welcome to the eleventh official challenge of our Digital Scrapbooking Day celebration!  For Digital Scrapbooking Day, we're offering challenges related to digital scrapbooking - which will encourage sampling various digital techniques, as well as tasks related to archiving your memories digitally. We will be posting challenges hourly, from 8am to 8pm Eastern.

Digital Scrapbooking Day Challenge #11: Use a piece of children’s clothing as inspiration for a digital project. 

The inspiration you draw from the piece can be varied -- the color scheme, a pattern, or a memory of your children, or from your own childhood.  If using the color scheme, use the color dropper tool to create a color palette (then share the palette!).  If you don’t have children’s clothing nearby, search the web for examples (try GapKids and Hanna Andersson).

Here is a recipe - glad it's scrapped now as this is one we love to bring to parties during the holidays.

Oh my - note to self: a long day of being on the computer may lead to errors - go to bed!

Here's the real link to a layout that was inspired by my children's clothing (pink and blue)!

You're right Tanya... These challenges are addictive. I live in Guam so it's pretty crazy late... er early... here right now.

Okay, here's one that I just finished. My son's denim overalls goes well with this kit by Lynn Grievesen. And it's free too! I also made the title from the overalls.

Here's mine for the children's clothing- I liked the blue with touches of neutral and green in the shirt.
