Friends






Hi, everyone another glorious week here again and with the excitement of The Royal Wedding on Friday it has been a quick week, can you believe it's May already. Here is my layout for the colorcombogalore 190 challenge, if you haven't checked out this sight yet, put it on your to do list, great people, great inspiration! This was taken a few years ago on a trip to Devon, this was at Paignton zoo and it was one of those pics that I hadn't got around to scrapping. The inspiration was siblings, they love each other but can also fight like cat and dog, so I guess it hits the pet inspiration as well, LOL. I used Bo-Bunny for the background paper from the Gabrielle collection, the dies are tattered floral and elegant flourish from Tim Holtz, which I sprayed with Cosmic Shimmer Mist, love this stuff have just bought more. will do a post on it later in the week, you can sort of see the effect on the flowers although it looks better in real life. Bows and butterflies from stash, oh the Friend title I picked up yesterday it is wooden and cost me £1 in Hobbycraft they have a load of different sayings, such a bargain, need to go out and get some more. Look forward to your comments and any questions feel free to blog. Have a good week x.

  1. May already - it's a frightening thought!! Great layout here Doreen...you got the colours spot on & the sparkle is just lovely. Hope you enjoyed the wedding coverage. I certainly did. She's a gorgeous girl & did a splendid job with no fluffs - thought her dress was rather dull though - but her sister's was stunning!

  4. I commented on Color Combos Galore, but I had to pop by and take a closer peek. Absolutely gorgeous LO! Love your use of shimmer mist on these beautiful layered flowers...the result is fantastic. Love the bows and the ribbon down the side of the photo. The title and papers that you have used are fab too. :)
