I'm looking forward to giving this a try also. My big problem now is trying to decide what my favorite color is now

[pamcook]

My favorite color changes all the time

Marianne - thanks again for doing these. Some of my favorite layouts this year have been inspired by your challenges.

Hello, I'm still working my way through the Austrian photos, and don't think I will reach my goal to have the album finished before this year's end!
This is a beautiful monastery in a little town by a lake.
My favourite colour, for this album, seems to be creams and buttery yellows.
I used a stencil to make the patterned background.
The angel is a button, but I cut the shank off so that it would lie flat on the page.

Kathryn this is really very pretty. Time, does anyone have any that they can share ;p

[ChristyB]

Kathryn what a beautiful page. So peaceful

Beautiful layout and place! It looks so restful. I wonder if they take overnight guests.
