Playing Catch up.....

This flu thing has been hitting me off and on all week. Luckily, the kids haven't had it at all...just me...yay. :( I feel like I am so far behind in everything, so today will be catching up like mad. This is Challenge #4 from Paper Lovin' Gals. I just LOVED the accordian decorations. I sooo wanted to make some really pretty flowers for my page. But I was stuck on the color scheme too. So, I came up with these papers from Colorbok and made my own accordian photo mat. :) I took a few tries to get the photo mat just the right size and shape. I also handcut some flowers from another sheet of the Colorbok papers and put them on pop dots for dimension. The letter stickers are from the very old stash. Check out what the Paper Lovin' Gals Design Team did with this challenge! The different styles are so amazing! It just proves that with one photo, you can get so many different inspirations. I also used this beautiful Family photo of my best friend for the "family" challenge from Frosted Designs. :) I sure hope my feeling good stays with me today! I have so much more to do! Have a great day!!

    Your page is really lovely and CAS. I like the way you've incorporated the accordian fold into it.
