Scrap the Girls...

It's been a while since I played along at Scrap the Girls, not sure why, although I think besides being pushed for time lately, I have also been spoiled for choice with challenges. When I saw this month's challenge though, I couldn't resist. This month, the challenge is to take inspiration from the following picture...

I saw so many things that attracted me to this - the colours, the layering, the textures, birds, butterflies...how could I resist? I decided to pick out only a few of the colours (aqua, green & orange) to focus on and here's what I came up with...

Again, I used my Jillibean Soup 'Blossom Soup' pps & die cuts - I really love how versatile this collection is! I got out my mists (this time 'Tiger Lily' and 'Sunflower') to create the background and the doilies were also misted with 'Jazz Blue'. The alphas are a mix of AC chipboard Thickers ('Sunrise - Limeade') and BG micro monos.

Included in the embellishments are one of my own (coming soon) Lovelybug Bits n Bobs fabric buttons, a Kaisercraft mini crochet doiley and of course, some Bakers Twine...

There's also Prima rose trim, a Scrap FX chipboard owl and a smidgen of Green Tara paper string...all from Handmade By Suzanne, of course! ;-)
