If you are a regular reader, you already know the drill! ;) The entire hop goes live at 8:00 a.m. Pacific (11:00 my time) so if you are early, just check back later to catch everyone!
My one little word for 2011 is "happy". I am focusing this year on what it means to be happy, what makes me happy, how mindful I can be about choosing happiness.
I was happy to have a simple page to do this month!
Finally managed to decorate the cover of the album! The butterflies are by Donna Downey for Prima - flocked iron-ons. But I really feel like it is not finished. I just don't know what else to do! Distressing? Add some black outlines? A little inking on the edges? What do you think??? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Your next stop on the hop is Melissa's blog.

I love it,Cheri....bright and beautiful....maybe some inking round the edges would just finish it off.
The photo is great! What about a black hand drawn border incorporating your word for your cover? Good for you keeping up with it all!
What a lovely page, photograph and album, you have done yourself proud.
So lovely Cheri, great affirmations. I lovveeee the butterflies, what a great start to your cover!!! I know you will get super inspired. Just let it come to you!!!! xoxo
What a nice photo of you Cheri!
I love everything. THat album is beautiful with all of those bright butterflies. The only thing that came to mind for your album is maybe some text in a neutral color (black or brown) going in a straight line to balance out the whimsy of the butterflies. Of course the perfect text might be your word! I imagine it being in the top right side of the cover between the green and pink butterflies maybe overlapping the pink one a bit. Or maybe the bottom left in that white space. Hmmm... Though I love how it looks now - so pretty and cheerful!
I meant top left side of your cover!
Another huge fan of the photo! I love the cover, too, especially the bright colors. I'm thinking a title would finish it off. (Always a fan of text.)
the color is very fun.
i say black line all around and maybe add a title.
gorgeous fun colors you chose.

lovely photo and great text down the side "happy to just be me". Maybe you could incorporate something like that on your gorgeous album cover.
I love the cover :)
I would just leave it as is lol!
Great photo! Love the writing on it. Your cover is so bright and lovely.
Lovely photo - that's perfect and I do love your album - I am dying to make a start on mine but I'm too scared to make a start and not like it LOL
Wonderful photo and the album cover is beautiful. Love the colors.
I too was happy to have a simple page this month :)
