Don't forget that my July Fashion Challenge goes thru until August 5th! You've got a few more days!

This month, I found this very striking outfit on Pinterest:



I'm a HUGE fan of orange and navy blue. So for this challenge, what else -- use navy blue and orange together!!! And lets add banner strips or pennants to the mix!

Here's my layout:



My li'l guy posed with his basketball and I just couldn't help using the EP mini kit "basketball" to scrap these photos. I've got a couple of banner strips going on in this layout.

My layout is also based on Sketch N Scrap's newest sketch:



And now the rules!

1. Please post here with your work. Use Navy Blue and Orange together (as little or as much as you want AND other colors are absolutely fine); along with banners and/or pennants
2. All is welcome! Paper, digi, card-making, projects, whatever floats your boat!
3. You may combine with any other August challenge.
4. Due September 1st, at 11:59PM
5. One lucky random winner will receive a $5 ACOT gc from me!

I love Orange/Navy together! I don't think I have any outfits that are, but I really think it is a striking combo!
I love your example! Mr. Jeffery looks adorable in those photos and what you did with the sketch is awesome!

Brown & Orange or Navy & Orange?

On my computer the colors look brown & orange.

My computer is showing orange and black so I'm glad you stated the colors, Brandy! Great example with the sketch and love using banner strips too!

Its Navy....that's how its showing up on my computer. But you can add any other colors to the mix!

Yes, it does look almost black, its soooo dark....but yes, its actually Navy.

Yeah and it has a pink thin stripe in the dress on my computer. It shows and orange and black! 

But orange and navy it is!!!  I do love those colors together, too!!

LOL - back to 2015 and "What Color is This Dress"!!

On my phone it looks like black and orange. I'll see what it looks like on my computer when I get home.

LMAO!!! Hahaha!!!

 

Now that I'm home and with a decent monitor - definitely looks navy blue and orange.  Now I want to go shopping because that combination looks stunning!!

I don't think I have ever put those 2 colors together, so this should be fun!

Me too! I'm a HUGE country music fan, especially the more traditional stuff.

Wonderful page example, Brandy, and love the challenge.  So glad you listed the colors or I would have done black and orange!! Love the navy instead!  Great color combo and the stripes are jazzy!

Thank you Kathy! Funny how the image is so different depending on phone vs computer and which monitor you use. Have fun with this one!
