Colour lovin' 2013/ Life Paper Scrapbook Colour Challenge

So I was blog hopping recently and came across this sight, Life Paper Scrapbook.

I was drawn to their 1st Colour Challenge.
Check out how gorgeous the palette is


I raided my paint stash and mixed up the 5 colours in the palette. 
Before watering them down and running and splatting them on my page.
It's a pretty bright page. 
But it goes with my feel for 2013. 
I want my year to be full of colour and happiness. After my last year of grief and darkness, I deserve light and happiness. 
And I'm off to a good start this year as last month I ran the MS colour run. Sooo much fun.

Anyway back to my layout. Please excuse the dullness of the photos. It's overcast here today.
