Dream, Believe, Imagine: Monochromatic Challenge

Tammy's Challenge this month at Citrus Tree was to do a monochromatic layout! I struggle with these as I always want to add another color! Here is my layout for that challenge. It was fun picking out scraps and digging through other peoples scraps (Thanks Teri). I'm not sure whats gotten into me, but I have pulled out my beads and wire and used them on this layout and on another layout I am working on! I should have taken a close up, but the butterfly is a Prima flower with beads and wire as the body and antennas.

Maddy received this cute dress as a gift. Its SO cute on her! I think I am going to take her in to get professional photos with her quilt my mom made and that dress. I just love the combo of it! She WOULD NOT cooperate with me when I tried to get pictures!

I have a mini album I made that I really want to share with you. I just have a few small things left to do. Anyone else have projects they almost get done and then lack motivation to take the 10 minutes to finish them?

I am thankful for:

29. Games, they are a great way to spend time with family!
28. Four seasons, they all have things I love about them.
