I'm starting off the month with your first challenge. Today we are featuring your favorites!

1. Use your favorite photo or photos
2. Use your favorite color
3. Use a favorite quote
4. Use a favorite technique
5. Use a favorite embellishment
Can't wait to see how it comes together for you.

My favorite photo is this most recent family photo shoot of us with our Grandchildren.
My favorite color is red so I colored in the heart on my quote
My favorite quote is Grandchilden fill a space in your Heart you never knew was empty. Anonymous
My favorite embellishment is jewels. I love the bling look in different colors.
My favorite technique is an old one where you make a slit in the paper and fold it back to expose the back of your pattern paper. Add another scrap of paper and line it up with the edge then place brads on the folded back portion to hold it in place and get this cute look
Here is my example:

I hope you enjoy this recipe. Have fun and can't wait to see your work.
