Two challenges in one today, the Dans Ma Maison….il y a….challenge is “un jardin” this week AND there is a new Friday challenge, Art Creations Friday. Each person is to create something with the lovely lady below.
*click pics for larger view*
I worked in my house shaped altered book and created a “garden” themed spread with the stunning image offered by Art Creations Friday. I am finding lots of uses for the leaf ribbon trim, I have it in green, white, gold and silver. So far the green seems to be my favorite. Circled on the right hand page are a few words that jumped off the page at me, Love it when that happens: “what makes a house a home“.

Patty, how exquisite! I always enjoy reading the quotes you have in your entries. You are either a lady with a fantastic mind for memorizing quotes or you have a super quotation book to look in.
