Glamorous Gray

There's something so chic and sleek about just the right shade of Gray. Or Grey. How you you spell it? I like both! :D The backgrounds in this series all have a shade of gray somewhere in the design. From charcoal to light ash grey, a subtly sophisticated look is incorporated throughout.

(Without the chandelier, it reminds me of a dress that a proper English nanny might wear... the black, with white polka dots - oooh, and a hint of bright accent color, if she's a fashionable lady!)

The following series of backgrounds is named after one of my very dear friends, McKenzie. I was able to attend her lovely graduation ceremony, and the colors of the party and cake afterwards were much like the palette used in these blog backgrounds... and so were the polka-dots! :)

This background design "Black Madonna" was named after a book I read by Davis Bunn, one of my favorite Christian Fiction authors (or as he prefers to be titled - wordsmiths). One of my very favorite Davis Bunn books is "The Book of Hours". Check it out, you'll like it! :)
