Mad About Scrappin' ??

"Sisterly Love"

Shock, horror! I've managed 2 Layouts in one day...and the irony is that DH didnt take out his 'girlfriend' (aka model aircraft lol) today !!!

First up the October 'Mad About Scrappin' colour challenge...using the above photo as inspiration!

It seems like ages since I done a real "girly girly" LO, so the inspiration was just beautiful and perfect timing to used this photo taken of my 2 DGD's. 

The Echo Park pp was part of a mini kit that I purchased at Mad About Scrappin' ages ago, so ideal time to use this as well. I love the colours and the patterns. Its also the first time I've used the EK Success punch to make the flowers, which I purchased from the Scrapbook show in June.

Supplies:

Mulberry Cardstock (unknown); Echo Park papers & stickers (Hello Spring); Tim Holtz die (Distressed doily); EK Success boarder punch (flowers); Prima flower centres; Kaiser rhinestones; metal & pearl flower (unknown); Glimmer Mist (Lily Pad); Versa Color ink (Turquoise); Ranger Liquid Pearls (avocado); Dylusions mask (leaves); ribbon; twill; gel pen; double sided tape; Helmar adhesive.
