Lovely work! Here's my contribution for this challenge. It's card-sized, but could work as an art journal type page too.  Matter of Mind by Jane Bradbury, on Flickr I used items from Organic, Not Too Shabby and Twirl by Shabby Princess. The main focal point is Eliaz by Rebecca McMeen, the background, cardboard and quote are also from the kit Eliaz. Created in Photoshop - of course  Oh, I should say which 5 items I picked! Staple, paperclip, patterned paper background, small alpha stickers and stitching. I love the rich colors! This is one of my favorite quotes, thank you so much for playing! |

Right, I'm just posting to see if I can get an image in here..... ooh, it worked! Sorry it's so gigantic. I'll make tomorrow's smaller! I used a frame (of Nuvo dots around the edge), staples, 6x4" photo, inked edges (I inked the woodgrain paper) and patterned paper as a background (this is super hard for me, I'm usually a white background girl!).  woodysbetty I love your LO! Great embellishments i am a white bg girl too, so i feel your pain, but this turned out really well--i love the nuvo drops frame!!! |

here’s mine, using almost every item on the list. 4x6 photo, florals, a circular frame, rubon stitching, a paper clip, a few staples, small alpha stickers, and a patterned paper background. i need to look up the date and there’s no journaling because i’ve already made a 2-page spread telling the story and using lots more photos.  omg what an awesome gift!! were you totally surprised or had you suspected? Great layout! |

Great job ladies! I am so impressed.
This week has been madness here with all the 2hour delays from the icy weather. This morning I woke up with a slight fever, sore throat and coughing all night. I plan on taking it easy and getting the next challenge up tonight! I will try to go comment on the other challenges later today!
