A kiss on a rose...

Good Monday Morning,

I hope you all had a great and relaxing weekend. Today is time for a new challenge over at Practical Scrappers. Before I reveal my layout, let's see who the winners are for the punches challenge. The top three are: Janice, Irinka, Melin, and our grand prize winner is Momo. Congrats and you all did a fantastic job, as always!
Now, on to the current challenge. We want to see patterned paper baby! I had picked up this stack on sale at Michale's a while back. It is somewhat bold for me. I decided this was the time to pull it out. I used 4 different patterns for this background.The butterflies and flowers are cut from the remaining scraps. If you look closely, the flower stems are made from pp too! I really should have gone with a darker ribbon for the leaves on the flowers. I think the pink ribbon gets lost in the photograph. It looks good irl, but you can't hardly see it here. You know the butterflies had to have some stickles.

In case you are curious, the rose is growing in my Gran's garden. She loves Knock Out roses and this one I caught the perfect bud as it was opening.
Check out my super talented dt sisters all week for terrific inspiration and don't forget that the grand prize winner will receive three digi's from Wink, Wink, Ink, our fabby sponsor this month. I can't wait to see what you all do with patterned papers!

Blessings,

  11. Love how you made all these PP work together. Adding the circles really rounded it out, lol. Beautiful pic of the rose. I'm guessing you have a green thumb.

  12. Awesome photo Kim, you captured that perfectly. Great use of all the patterned paper, love the round flowers and stems. Butterflies wouldn't be the same without stickles isn't it obligatory.
