The pastel patterned papers get an extra added punch with the use of the dark purple cardstock mats and a few dark purple roses among the pale yellow and pink - the large purple rose is made using Spellbinders' Rose Creations dies...
I started embellishing a Maya Road heart stickpin, but once I finished, I decided I wanted a second pin to offset it, so I added another Maya Road pin, this time the one with three graduated pearls...
And a couple closeups of the small flower clusters surrounding the large rose...
Supplies:
Patterned papers: My Minds Eye Miss Caroline/Dolled Up collection (stripe);
Fiddlesticks collection (floral & yellow dot)
Dies: Memory Box Elegant Scrollwork; Spellbinders Rose Creations; My Favorite Things Royal Leaves
Punch: Martha Stewart Medium Branch Small flowers: Wild Orchid Crafts
Pearls: Recollections Lace: local craft store Maya Road stick pins
