GRAND CANYON? and a color challenge

Good morning to all! I've been rather quiet on my blog, I bet my husband wishes the same when he's watching 'House'! Anyway, Jeanette Lynton, the CEO/founder and fabtabulous designer at CTMH is now posting a 'Color Me Monday' challenge! So because I like to do more than one thing at a time, I used her challenge colors and the Starting Blox layout challenge over at Scrapyland's blog to accomplish this page.

For me, it was difficult because I had so much white space to deal with, but in the end I think it turned out fine. I cut a large snowflake with my Silhouette and sponged over it on the background paper, using it as a stencil. I thought it calmed down the white space.

As for the story of the crazy photo - My husband and I were in Las Vegas for a few days and decided to buzz on over to the Grand Canyon (not like running to the next door neighbor's mind you) and it began to snow and snow... and snow......

By the time we drove in, it was a complete white out!! So, long story short - I STILL HAVE NOT SEEN THE GRAND CANYON!! But I have this crazy picture of us to remember the moment and the laughs!

With that, I hope you go out and give your flowering shrubs and early tulips some extra lovin' and thank the good Lord above for their beauty and while your at it, stop complaining that you have to mow the grass!! :) OK getting off my soapbox now

God Bless!
