Challenge YOUrself.

At Challenge YOUrself  we are asked to use a black and white photo of ourselves.

Many years ago I helped set up a local branch of the Arthritis foundation. There was a doctor,pharmacist plus other members. I was the first secretary and in this photo was honoured to meet a former Premier of New South Wales.

I used Kraft as my background and chose yellow as my main colour with some black.
The flowers soften the black and white photo
The quote "most people would succeed in small things if they were not so troubled by great ambitions." is a rub-on.

I love the bits of yellow and black with the kraft cardstock! I don't know if I would have ever thought to pair yellow with kraft but it looks lovely. Great photo and great quote, too. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Challenge YOUrself! -Lori DT
