She is...

As soon as I saw the Color Me Scrappy color challenge #6, my heart skipped a beat. I simply love these colors and I knw immediately that I would be digging through my stash to find just the perfect combination of patters and colors. I had an idea in my head, but then as I pulled these great bold colors and prints, my head began to think of something more "quilted" and this is the end result. I have to say that I just love this page- the wheel design really enhances the mixture of patterns and colors, but the main focus is still on the photo of my sweet girl, Ashlyn. I took this photo one morning as she was waiting for her bus. (Her little cheeks are so puffy from the medications- we all talk about how much we just want to sqeeze them because she's never had any fat on her. Ever. lol)

  7. Raechelle I love the quilted look of your design. And you are right all the pretty contrasting patterns and papers don't distract from this beautiful photo of Ashlyn. What a wonderful and treasured page this will be in years to come! xx
