Key to My Heart

Guess I'm on a butterfly kick lately ;) I decided to whip up this card for my hubby. I like to leave random cards for him in different places. I'm thinking this one will either go in his gym bag or in his car.

ANYTHING GOES

Sooooo... I went to a friend's house last week for some scrapbooking. It was very nicely pointed out to me that most of my layouts are similar in design. So this week I challenged myself to get out of my comfort zone and try something a little different. Here's what I came up with. It's waaaaaaay to busy for my taste but I think it's starting to grow on me ;)

Link up your creation to Monica's Creative Madness. 

This week's sponsor is Monica.

 She's giving away a $10 gift card to Michaels.
