Weekly Challenge 11/22

The challenge for this week is a simple one! Alter your alphabet to match your layout better!


For my layout, I used the Jillibean Soup cooregated alpha in white and I used two colors of Glimmer Mist to give them some color and some shine..a little yellow and a little truffle made them pop and really gave a sweet tone to the layout, I think!

Here's a close up:
