The week five Summer of Color combo is candy apple red and yellow. Initially I resisted this color combo and had a hard time getting started because all I could think of was McDonalds (yuck!).
I created this page with a wash of yellow acrylic, layered on the b&w wrapping paper, red tissue paper heart, and white heart shaped doily. Then I used purple spray mist and dripped red ink. Added texture with yellow and orange acrylics. Added some word and music washi tape. Inked the edges of my quotes and applied them with gel medium, allowing some of the paint and spray mist to smear onto them. And then finished it off with some stamps with red ink. Nice and messy!
The week 6 Being Me topic is being kind to yourself, banishing negative self-talk, etc. I found a handful of quotes that I really loved to include with this page as personal reminders. You can click on the photo to make it larger and view the quotes!

Lots to love on this page, the colors are gorgeous! I like the butterflies and the black/white mixed into this.
Such inspiring quotes, this class sounds great. Happy SOC!
So much colour, I love it and great for the prompt.
Awesome journal page.
Very cool! I used paint drips, too, and went with a "heat" theme. I'll be posting mine on Friday. Once again, I think adding a third or fourth color really works well.

Great to see this Cheri! I love your color combination and the quotes too :) Awesome stuff!
This is so cool, Cheri. I love the colors and textures.
I inherited a piece of art from my mom that is made with tissue paper - a beautiful sunflower piece. You'll see it in my kitchen when you visit me. :o)!!!
wow-your SOC pages turned out splendidly!!! I heard a few others mention the McDonald's thing but it never entered my mind.
Gorgeous embellishment in these colorful pages- wow!
WOWZA! Your pages are absolutely beautiful! I love how you used this week's colors! Just gorgeous and so creative!
Wonderful, bold pages!!. LOVE the quotes, and the drips :).
I love all the layers and textures on this spread. Great use of the colours. I struggled with this weeks colours as well, but I am glad for the challenge to step outside my go-to colours. :)
Great page for the SOC challenge. I used yellow tissue for this challenge:)
These are wonderful life-affirming quotations: and such a strong colour combination behind them!
This is a truly inspirational page. I love your chosen quotes and colour combination. Thanks for sharing
