PIXELS AND PAPER MAY CHALLENGE~ CHERISH

Hello , 

Firstly I would like to wish all the Mum's , Grandma's and I women in general a Happy Mother's Day, I hope all have had a lovely day.
I thought I would like to join in with the challenge at Pixels and Paper this month, I was taken by the lovely colours and image and the criteria is flowers, which I am a bit partial to as well.


and this is my take


I wanted to create layers like a cake,so I have used a stencil and texture paste and then mists, water paints , stamping etc and added my flowers.


and some close ups






The flair is from Studio Fourteen40 and the lovely blue braid was my Mums
Thank you for calling by , I love to receive your comments.
I will leave you with a pic from Mothers Day
The only one missing was my daughter and her partner who couldn't make it home unfortunately , but the middle child made a surprise trip , so that was really lovely, I had a really nice day .

Love, Peace and Kindness
Mary x

Lovely to see the almost all of you family snap! We just had Mum and Roden & we all met at the local Club for lunch.....was nice, though:) Just enough to do. Still recovering from our trip! Love that LO.....you've used the colours to perfection & the touches of lace & that little ballet dancer on the left...she so goes with the photos! And your bg work is STUNNING! Nice one Mary:):)

It's always a joy to have the chicks gathered around for a celebration and wonderful to get a photo too. Fabulous layout with that graceful girl looking so elegant. You really nailed the style and the colours of the challenge and I love all the little ballet motifs scattered around :D

This nis a delightful page Mary. I love how you have done your background; snippets of lace, tulle, music paper and all of your layering with your other sprays, stamping and textures. All of it and the colours chosen, perfectly complement the beautiful photos. Thank you for joining in at Pixels and Paper. Cheers, Di.
