Monochromatic!

Welcome to another great challenge here at Seize the Birthday! For our US team members and friends...Happy Thanksgiving!  As I am writing this post I can't help to express how Thankful I am for my STB team and our followers!  I never dreamed this hobby of mine could turn into something so gratifying! The friendships I have made on this journey are priceless!  Speaking of priceless...
This is Patti's last post with us at STB and my segway from the word priceless fits her to a T.  We wish you nothing but the best Patti, and hope to hear from you now and then!  You are a true talent and we appreciate all your inspiration you have given us!

I also need to thank Becca for being an Amazing Surprise Party Guest the Past 3 months! It's been a joy having you and your talented self with us and we hope to see you again in 
our gallery real soon! 

Now onto our topping!  

    Our "Toppings" option this time is...
"Monochromatic"

The choice is yours!
