Sow

Well the flu caught up to me after all and I've spent the day the cleaning up the aftermath of a sick family of 5 - ick. But after much sleep we are all feeling better today and may even get out in this gorgeous snowy day to take a belated Christmas card photo!

Here is a layout completed for the final Elements and Color challenges of the year over at Design Dollies. The Elements wanted 1 photo, 1 title word, 1 cardstock, 1 patterned paper (Bella Blvd Chance of Rain) and 1 embellie (the cloud balloon bouquet). For Color there is orange in the title, tan as the background, royal blue in the clouds and chocolate brown as the journaling.

The journaling reads: "Sow: to scatter seeds in freshly plowed earth, hoping that with a little sunshine, rain water and weed maintenance a bounty of fresh, nutritious and delicious fruits will fill our stomachs in the fall.  Last Frost 2010: May 9th." 

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas with your loved ones!! I'll be taking a little blog vaca while the kids are on school break - see you soon!
