One thing I consistently hear when I am teaching is that people are afraid to put flowers on their husband's or son's pages. I don't have a hard time with this at all. My husband, of course, loves the rustic outdoor pages I create for his book, but he also loved the colors on this page. This is Chantilly, and it's matching dimensional elements. Are you surprised? .I sure am! On first glance, I think when we see this paper packet we see the pinks, yellows, and greens. But I created this layout to bring out the warm blues of twilight. I used the Artiste cartridge to cut the title "spring." The little treasure on these two pages is the use of the large rose from the March Stamp of the Month. I tucked them behind the clusters.
So there are flowers, spring colors, and pink glitter gems. I hope I've inspired you to step out of the "normal" colors and try something new with your pages!

Beautiful clusters once again. Love it!
I love it! After a week of playing with this paper....It has grown on me. I sure do like it.
LOVE this layout. Every time I want to make a cluster of things I think, "what would Brenda Rose do?" I still haven't come close to achieving the beautiful work you do. PS ... I hope you'll take a peak at my Mission Possible kits when they come out this weekend. One of the layouts looks similar to this ... makes me feel creative to match with you.
I love the pink and orange flowers against the teal cardstock. Such a pretty contrast!
