Pretty pictures. . .

I have five pictures that I was considering putting in my Project Life album (Mother gave it to me for Christmas).  But there is only room left in the lay out of this page for one picture.  This leaves me with the dilemma of deciding which one I like the best.  So be a nice person and help me out with your opinion!

 Three of the following pictures are actually retouched versions of this picture.

Sepia. . .

I would really appreciate your opinion!!!

The Costume

I dance with the Va-Dels dance group in Tremonton UT.  My class was given the assingment of creating a "hip-hop" outfit with a pair of black and silver high tops and a lavendar tank top.  To keep with the theme of black-silver-purple my mother started cutting apart a black sweatshirt from Walmart.  Then she quit and I finished.  This is how it turned out:
 I actually just  barely made the flower tonight and I eally like how it turned out.  The back is a piece of the sweatshirt that I cut off, the wire infront of that is actually used to hang picture frames.  The grey/silver flower in the center is actually a flower that my mother had that she didn't mind me using.
Of course I had to add giltter to it, so I used the kind that comes in an aresol can from Walmart.
 The picture below is the story of what I used to make the flower.  I absolutely love hot glue guns, they are a girl's best friend.  I also love glitter that comes in spray cans (I didn't know that it came in aresol form!!!). 
 My mother just walked down here and said "So all we need to do is make you mad, and you'll get all creative?!?!?"  My answer, "Yes, it seems to work doesn't it?"

Have a nice-hopefully-not-freezing-day tomorrow!!!
