Challenged Until Green

For our second week's challenge at scrapperie,we have to make a monochromatic layout...the hard part is we are not allowed to use black or white except for journaling..no black or white for titles,borders,mats,etc..not even for doodling..we should also include a minimum of 1 patterned paper (with only one color), and a minimum of 2 embellishments...what a challenge! i decided to go with my fave color, green..Starting was the hardest part,but once i checked my stash for anything green i have,i found it was actually fun doing this...One thing i kept in mind,was contrast...i was careful to use a shade of green,different from the shade that is near or beside it in the layout...

journaling:

Isabella,

the bond between us is the most precious gift of all..Someday,when you are your own individual, a wife, a mother, you will alwayb be your mother's daughter..
