After being challenged to do a scrapbook layout using the rainbow order of colours, I knew that only one of the ideas that came to mind would be perfect. I can't think of a better way to showcase the beauty that is our region of the world. I still struggle with scrapbooking photos realted to my heritage and culture. The answer? Just let the photos shine through, and forget all the frou-frou stuff.
The third picture from the right is one one of my favorite flowers to photograph. We call it 'kelki geel', yellow cup. What do you call it?

I think in Grenada we call it buttercup, but the right name as Elspeth said is Alamanda :)

I had never heard the name 'Alamanda' before. Pretty cool.

i loved the way in which the colours were used to depict a certain aspect within the caribbean.

It is better to be beautiful than to be good. But it is better to be good than to be ugly. Do you agree?
