This LO kinda 'evolved' (this happens a lot lately)

When I started to create, I had no idea what photo I was going to use, but knew I loved this Lost&Found Breeze 'Fun Day' Today Paper and found some little flowers that I'd had in my stash forever (this are Prima ones- you can use any sort). So laid them all out and stuck them on my background paper

Then started to paint over them with gesso (or you could use any paint)


But started to second guess myself again..... needed more flowers! So added more and painted more! This felt better! And also laid some Stella and Rose Mabel 'Little Lady' Trim along the bottom to test out how it would look


Finished by sticking down the trim, and finding a photo to match!!! Then added in Lost&Found Breeze 'Precious' Bauble Pom Poms (love this stuff!)
Two little tags Stella and Rose Mabel 'Love' Decorative Tags and twine from 12 Days of Christmas Trims (this packet of trims has fabby bright pink bauble trim in it too!) And the brown glitter Alpha Lost&Found Madison Ave 'Sisters' Glittered Alpha (a fave of mine- its a much richer brown in real life)
The buttons added to the flowers are kraft Fun Day Happy Days Buttons




I love this little MME Tree label I had for ages (not available now) and cut the trunk from (it would really be easy to handraw and cut out too!)

Who would like to do some experimenting with backgrounds? Yes?

I think I need to get some gesso to play with Mandy - you seem to use it a lot

And I love that trim too!

This looks fabulous, Mandy.

I love the way your layouts just "evolve" from a fav piece of paper

Looks great

gorgeous missy love the way you used the flowers.

Gorgeous Mandy!
I want to have a go at something like this.
Can't wait to have a play!

Thanks girls... I'd love to see your interpretations!!
