LM - It's a Color Challenge: big Sister little Brother layout

Good Morning to you this fine day :) We had a fantastic time yesterday getting together with family all day. First was the Campbell Reunion which is always fun and the best way to catch up with everyone in the family. Great to see all the cousins playing together in harmony really makes for a wonderful day. We got good news yesterday too :) We are gonna be Great Grandparents to a set of twins to be born in February :) OMgoodness! Later in the evening we had our immediate family get together for some roasting hotdogs and smores. Great stuff! and lots more memories to scrap,,,, Enough about my day yesterday, Lets talk Lasting Memories current challenge: It's a Color Challenge and this is what I created with the color pallet given:
2 of Albert's kids, Andrea took this picture of Astacia and AJ during a day trip up at Watkins Glen in NY on June11. There were some fantastic photos from that day and I'll be scrapping more of them but this one was just so cute when I seen it on the FB feed I knew that I had to scrap it.
This is the challenge's color pallet:

and I also used this sketch from Stick it Down for their challenge:

 My papers, cards, twine and alphas came from my cuurent Counterfeit kit for this month and the rest came from past month's kits (really need to get some of the old kits embellishments put away :) The background paper's glitter dots are the color of the darker blue of the color challenge, the rest should be easier to see. Neutrals are allowed to be used too.
 The title work came from 3 different fonts in my kit. Used the glittery one for Astacia and the black and white one for AJ. This picture shows those blue glitter dots better
 I used 2 of the CTMH: Picture This cards from the Skylark kit for 2 of the spots on the sketch and added some of the twine for some fun texture to the layout. Isn't this just the cutest picture :) It is so cool to see the sibling love with this family as it seems through all the kids families.
I added 3 blue skittles, 3 journal strips made with my brother labeler and the date of thee day was added to the bottom of the layout in Broken China distress ink with my Amy Tangerine blue date stamper.
Thanks for stopping by today and hope that you have fun with this color challenge and we see your creations linked up to Lasting Memories.
