Pink and grey combo,..an older layout that will finally see the light.

Hi !
Today I have a layout I made months ago but have been holding on to just in case,... I made it for a combo at Color Combos Galore the once so fabulous challenge site that unfortunately seems to be gone for good this time...So I'll go ahead and post this:

This is my original post in which I have just edited away a few things.

We were given some lovely feminine colours and I decided to do a layout about Alexandra,
our eldest daughter, from when she had her 20th birthday.

An assortment of different flowers here. I added mini roses and bling to the centers.

These stickers are made by Pink Paislee. They came in my warehouse box last year and I still had not opened them. I quite like the look of them though...

I took a piece of light coloured cardstock, or you could use lightweight cardboard, and painted with snow paint. I think gesso too would be great for this. After I dried it with my hair drier ( I am impatient when I'm creating...) I cut it into little pieces of 'brick'.

I think it adds a cute effect to my page and I am sure I will be doing something similar again soon.

Most of the papers here are from MME  Miss Caroline. I love that musical paper that I used for my border around the edge.

If you look closely you can see I used my trusted sewing machine again to add texture to the required round element in the middle. I think it shows up better in the first photo of the whole page.

I hope these feminine summery colours were able to add a little brightness to this dreary Autumn/Winter weather. At least all the grey gives us a good excuse to stay inside with a cup of cocoa!
