kazbar73 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Hello and welcome to another Saturday Colour Challenge. In my home town this week we are celebrating "Beef Week". Casino's biggest employer is an abbitor (meatworks) and we are surrounded by lots of farms. Beef Week is designed to showcase our town and all things that go with the beef industry. So are you up for my challenge? The colour challenge today, in keeping with this cow theme, is to do a black and white layout. Now if that is a little hard for all you colour girls than what about using a black and white photo? Its totally up to you. Dont forget to post your layout here. Have a fun filled Saturday everyone.

Julie - scrapaholic Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Here is mine, although this is a LO I did last week for the quote challenge, but it fits this one, and time is very limited this weekend so I'm cheating and reposting a LO.

tiza126 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 For the challenge today, I decided to do a 4x6 page to add to my brag book. I used all black & white supplies, and the only bit of color comes from the flower in my picture. Rainbow Rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AggieB Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 It's actually Sunday, but I've added to this challenge gallery. I was pretty pleased - I actually found a picture of a cow. What fun! http://scrapgirls.com.ipbhost.com/index.ph...i&img=82089 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeaBrok Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I haven't posted a layout in quite a while. I always start them but somehow never post them. I took it as a "sign" and "karma" that there was a black and white color challenge on the same day that the Night Blooming Cereus began to bloom. Here is my "Almost Black and White" layout.

Chan Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I did 2 los for this challenge and I am still not sure that I like either of them much but there you go. Sometimes you invest so much time in them that you can't quite let them go... I am sure that others will know what I mean! http://scrapgirls.com.ipbhost.com/index.ph...i&img=82180 http://scrapgirls.com.ipbhost.com/index.ph...i&img=82181 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggieB Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I like the flowers on the arbor, but I think, overall I prefer the other layout - with the touch of red ribbon. It just balances better to my eye. What is a Barwell boy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a Barwell boy? Australia lost so many young men in WW1. The result was that there was an extreme shortage of men to work the land. The premier of South Australia (Sir Henry Barwell) set up a scheme for young British boys (mid to late teens) to be apprenticed to farmers and soldier settlers. There was a lot of unemployment in Britain at the time so it suited both SA and Britain. The culture shock for many would have been extreme to say the least but many of the boys endured and prospered. My husband's father did well and I think the farmer to whom he was apprenticed must have been fair and reasonable unlike some. One of the papers we have (recently acquired from the SA archives) indicated that Ken actually earned a share in at least some of the crops he helped produce. He later injured his ankle (not while an apprentice) and as he had a good education he was able to take up teaching instead. Ken arrived in 1922 (the first year of the scheme) and scheme ended in 1924, with over 1400 lads making the journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtorres_usa Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Oh what a wonderful challenge! I was able to scrap a photo I have had this photo for quite a while and wasn't sure on how to scrap it. This theme gave me just the inspiration I needed! Thanks! Grace and Elegance Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
