December Colour Challenge

Hi Mei Li Paperie Fans,

This is Evelyn here today with the December color challenge. I had a lot of fun to create this layout with the beautiful color palette and the goodies from the Mei Li Paperie shop.

When I first saw the color palette I knew that I need to use the papers from Maggie Holmes Open Book collection together with these photos.

They are from our pre wedding photo shoot and I love them because we had so much fun together. And they fit the color scheme perfectly.

I’ve decided to go with blue and orange as my main colors on the layout. I love the result with this contrast.

It was so fun working with the color palette and I can’t wait to see what you choose for the Inspired by Challenge!

We can't wait to see what you create either! Show us how you are inspired by this image and share it here. You could win a My Mind's Eye prize pack full of Just Sayin collection goodies!

Here is how to play along:
- You can submit ANY kind of project that you were inspired to create such as layouts, cards, project life fillers
- The winner of the prize will be randomly drawn and our 3 favourite layouts be featured on the blog.
- Our challenge will run until December 18th at 11:55pm Hong Kong time.
- Link your creation below by entering a link to your blog post or online gallery sharing your work.  Our InLinkz now has the ability to link your project from Instagram! so you can just snap a photo of your project and link while you share it on instagram.. so cool!

September colour challenge...

September! Many of you will probably think that with September comes autumn colour pallets and inspiration of pumpkins, leaves and back to school type stuff... but although Autumn is my fav time of the year.. and I would do anything to be able to have it in my life... it just doesn't happen in here in Hong Kong. Nor is it happening in Australia, where our guest designer Kim Jeffress is... its spring there. So, I made this for all you crafters in those non-autumn parts of the world or those who generally are just not ready to let summer go yet.  Enjoy!!!

I knew Kim would rock these colours!

So shows us how this inspired you! Link your layout here by September 18th and you could win an Echo Park Creative Agenda prize pack!

August colour challenge

Jen here.. I just wanted to post a quick apology for this going up a day late. We have been having intermittent internet and issues with our blogging platform the past few days and couldn't get our post to go live.... so without further ado here is the colour challenge with Lucia!

Hello girls! Lucia here today to share a page I made using the August color palette and some pretty

goodies from Mei Li Paperie store.

I think this is the second time in my scrapbooking “career” (lol) that I’m scrapping a picture of mine.

Life is amazingly awesome and I sometimes feel like scrapping an emotion or feeling. This picture

was taken on a Sunday afternoon, when me and a friend of mine went for a walk outside the city –

nothing but fresh air, wild flowers, berries and herbs, beautiful mountain in the background and a

silence of the forest. Perfect!

This page is a perfect example of my work : ) White background, sewn banners, tissue paper, layers.

Another thing I LOVE to use when crafting are things you usually throw away, like the bottom stripes

from a 12x12 pages or packaging. I think it makes a page look really original : )

So shows us how this inspired you! Link your layout here by August 17th and you could win an Websters Ocean Melody prize pack!

Here is how to play along: 

- You can submit ANY kind of project that you were inspired to create such as layouts, cards, project life fillers

- The winner of the prize will be randomly drawn and our 3 favourite layouts be featured on the blog. 

- Our challenge will run until August 17th at 11:55pm Hong Kong time.

July Colour Challenge

Hello~ Mei Li Paperie fans..... Eunyoung here with the July colour challenge ~

I picked white & black as the main colors. (white is my favorite color!) 

I found each color gave me some feelings.... white  -> beautiful ,  black -> elegant & chic and the others -> sunshine & small petals

this colour pallette also made me imagine a scene that a ballerina was taking a rest.  : )

My layout 'be you' is a result by my this.

(this photo is one i took of my friend. she's not a ballerina, but she loves dance!!!!)

 tip : this fancy pants tags are so lovely! I picked a tag for journal and after cutting it I sewed it on the page by machine.  

(tag photos 1,2)
