Lasting Memories 474 - Floral

DT Button

Lasting Memories Layout Challenge #474 - Floral pattern paper
To continue along with our pattern paper theme this month, we want to see FLORAL! Get those flowers on there girls and let's see pretty.... woohoo.. 





Wow, it's the end of November already... I don't know about ya'll but the year has truly flown by for me! Both of my kids will be on school holidays shortly and even though I love having them home and yes, the sleep in's... I do miss getting a small break and I bet they miss being able to have a break from each other and me just as much! lol. 

For this layout I wanted to really highlight the paper and not over do the layout.. I wanted to keep it simple and just be wow-ed by those floral colours.. 



I used "Botanical Bliss" form the Cocoa Vanilla "happiness" collection. I love these papers and have been really enjoying being creative with this range.. With the pattern paper I cut off a 1" strip at the bottom to give some extra dimension once put onto the teal base page.  The pp strips are cut at random 1/2" - 3/4" and 1" wide.. I didn't measure the gaps perfectly, as I really wanted a natural feel to it.. 


On top of the paper I lightly spread some White Gesso and then some Silver paint.. This soften some of the bright colours on the paper so the photo and title could sit without being too lost or overtaken.. 
The chipboard I painted with the same Silver. I used Celeb8 chipboard and Thickers for the title. 
Last touches were a Kaiser transparent photo overlay and some tiny rose flowers.. 
I really do smile everytime I look at this layout.. 

What do you think?

 Thank you very much for joining me today and I'm so excited to be able to share with you all the creations for  the Lasting Memories Design Team! 
I really hope that you will drop by the blog and check out the inspiration from the rest of the team members and then get creative to link up your own entry.. There is plenty of options for this challenge theme, we all have some  floral pattern paper laying around somewhere.. lol 

Thanks again, Toni.. xoxo
