SO let's get started with our "WONDERFUL" Petaloo DT member...Irene Tan!
This month, I've had the opportunity to work using my favorite Botanica collection by Petaloo and the beautiful Homespun collection by Simple Stories. This time, I've used the colors of the blooms as inspirations for this layout.
Love these gorgeous colors and they really makes this layout complete!
See how well the Botanica flowers match the "meshy" Textured flowers and the Penny Lane Mini's in antique gold? They are perfect together...
It all comes together with the Simple Stories paper & embellishments just beautifully. Lots of color, lots of textures, and lots of layers!
Happy Valentine's Day and Happy Spring!!!
