This month's theme is "You Color My World" & the challenge is to use paint in your project. And you can use this picture as a starting point.
This is my lay out:

I used al kinds of paints on the peacock feathers and finished it of with glitter paint.....
For the Zeus and Zoe challenge:
New Beginnings
The month of March brings longer days, warmer temperatures, the rebirth of flora and fauna and Spring!
 "New Beginnings." If you started a new job, moved to a new city, are taking a class, treated yourself to a makeover, repainted your house, celebrated the birth of a child, or are reorganizing your scrap space we want to see how this journey has inspired you! This theme is open for interpretation, so we are adding an additional requirement for this challenge to use a mask or stencil on your entry.

This is my layout:

So sad you can't see the stencil I used it's behind the picture lol........I got married in April last year it's a NEW start for us so sorry for the bad picture....
