Bonus Post--Complementary Colors

Hello all! I'm presenting a new layout for you as part of the Lasting Memories Challenge #687--Complementary Colors. This layout is part of a trip to the DeSoto National Memorial in Florida. Part of their nature trail includes these 2 religious statues. DeSoto's expedition had 12 Catholic priests, and the local diocese provided these 2 statues in the park. 



Complementary colors are those directly across from each other on a color wheel. There's a copy of a color wheel in the link to the challenge above. I chose blue and orange for my colors. The background paper is baby blue and the 1" borders are an orange-toned designer paper. I also decided to make the clouds a dark blue as part of the contrast, though I was mighty tempted to use the white on the reverse side. The blue worked out well though. The layout is based on a CM Virtual Crop sketch that I saved. The papers are from the CM collection "Tropic Time".
