Flowers....

anyone who knows me, will know that I LOVE flowers.  When I first got married I just loved when we bought our first house, that Brad and I created some beautiful gardens.  Then the drought came and so did water restrictions and so did children...lol!! so there went all my dreams of having beautiful flowers that I could hand pick and fill my house with! Anyway...one day I will get back into it again, when we buy our own place in Emerald, cause there is no water restrictions up here!!!!!!!!

So even tho I have two little boys, I am never afraid to add a flower to a scrappy project/layout.  In fact most times I do....I have a little passion for Prima flowers of late...but who doesn't!

Show us your Stuff is a new challenge blog that has been created to show off your handmade embellishments. The 1st challenge went up at the beginning of this month and we had a sketch provided along with extra criteria to use FLOWERS. Other than that you have to somewhere in your LO include a handmade embellishment.  And no, it doesn't have to be handmade by you.

So here is the sketch.....


And here is my take:

(I just ADORE your dimple)


Okay so my hand made embellishments include buttons from Sweet Tierney and then my handmade flower which is underneath a Prima flower. Riley has the most cutest chin dimple ( he can thank me for that!!) but I am sure he may not think so when he gets older.  I think it will make shaving really hard!!!


Hope you are having a lovely Friday and have a super duper weekend!
Thanks for popping by :)

  1. oh wow! This is just awesome. I love the banner and the little details here and there. The colour combo is wonderful! It all goes so well together and yes even though you have used flowers on a boy page you have managed to not make it look feminine! I also like the strips of different paper going down the page. So simple yet so effective. Is that Tim Holtz tissue paper or whatever its called? It looks good..should take mine out!Well done.
