Shades of Gray {Kendall}

Whew!  It has been wild around here.  I am in Oklahoma and we have had 20 plus inches of snow!  That is a record for us.  Needless to say we are stuck at home.  All four of us.  Being home isn't that bad but knowing that we can't get out is terrible!  I intended to do completely different photos for gray but was working on my son's Valentine cards and decided to use them as my gray this week.





Here's my youngest son...he was feeling left out!

I hope you are all staying warm!  And thank you all for joining us.  I am overwhelmed by all of you and your talent!

Don't forget you can still link up to your Robin's Egg Blue here.  Be sure to visit all the other participants and share some love.

Week 5, Color Reveal {Brooke}

As you probably figured, us ladies have the official color selector, my hubby, pick a few colors at a time...after all we need to be prepared so we don't keep you waiting or get behind. I'll be honest with you…our official color selector picked some challenging colors for the next few weeks! So, I hope you are up for a challenge!

Week 5 is already here, can you believe it? This Sunday is going to be a big day, the link up will open for the current weeks color, we'll pick a favorite for robin's egg blue and we'll post the poll for you to pick the winner from our four favorites of the week! Speaking of polls, how is everyone doing? Are the buttons working ok for everyone? Any questions? Have you added your name to the participant list? Have you visited our sponsors? Got to know the ladies by reading the founders/contributors page? Are you ready for the color reveal?

Alright, alright here it is...



I hope you all have an easier time with this color than I did! I've been avoiding this color for a few weeks now, not for this project, but for other photo challenges I participate in...I almost forgot gray was the color for week 5, I forgot to write it down in my calendar, so I spent most of the morning yesterday digging for items around the house. I thought gray would be super hard and after digging a little I found two subjects that I thought would work well and started to wonder why I was avoiding the beautiful color...but when I started looking though your robin's egg pictures two of you already used my object for week four's color and went in search for a third object to photography. I took pictures of all three anyway and since they turned out pretty nice I thought I'd post the first two objects plus the one I'm using for my "official" gray photo.

So here are my gray photos...





Well, there you are my shades of gray. What will you discover this week on our hunt for gray? I can't wait to see! Come back tomorrow for some more gray inspiration and don't forget you can still link up your robin's egg blue until Saturday!

Happy coloring,
Brooke

Robin's Egg Blue, week 4

So, Chestnut was a hard one huh? Well at least for me it was...hard or not, you guys did great at finding your the color of the week and I really enjoyed seeing all the different points of view and the places you found chestnut hiding! Our favorite chestnut find has to go to ArtsyBelle and her deliciously gorgeous wafers!


Doesn't this just make you hungry and look to beautiful to eat all at the same time?!
