Believe...CR84FN56 Week 2 47

Hello there! Happy Father's Day to all the Father out there! We will be treating Scott Xtra special today! ;) I'm back with another project using for the second week of the CR84FN56 Color Challenge!

I created a layout featuring a photo of sweet Meredith. I challenged myself to learn something new ~ notice the ribbon laced detail? I learned how to do that from Natasha's tutorial. I just love the fancy feminine touch that it adds.

All the flowers on this layout are handmade using Spellbinders Rose Creations and Bitty Blossoms dies.

I dabbed some white acrylic paint on the flowers to add a bit of interest.

For sketch inspiration, I played along with the Donna Salazar, June Girlie Grunge challenge:

Thanks so much for visiting! Please be sure to visit the CR84FN site for complete information and the entire CR84FN DT for some amazing inspiration: Suzanne Czosek, Lisa Somerville, Heather Jensen, Sue Lelli, Andrea Mathews, Pauline Pollington, Shannon White, and Deborah Frings. Be Sweet :)
