I'm so upset at myself that I used such a gloomy gray for the background paper...grrrr!!
This was our visit to the Botanical Gardens while in Iowa.. It was such a lovely place.. lots of different types of flowers, birds and gardens..
Here is a photo of the title.. I used the Opposites Attract cartridge ..
Here is a close up of some of the flowers I used..
and the sign I used for the city and state we were visiting.. The text is sooo small that the "W" in Iowa kept breaking, so I finally decided to try to glue it all together...LOL
Side view of the flowers.. I pop dotted all of them..
and another side view..

- Cricut Cartridge: Opposites Attract (title)

ReplyDeleteNanne, what is not to love about this? It is just amazing with all that detail. I don't even see the grey because my eyes are busy moving across the page! I can't wait to try something like it!
ReplyDeleteI think that's a wonderful layout. All those flowers just pop off the page and accent the title so well.
ReplyDeleteI had to apologize like 100 times for not getting to you girls blogs and leaving some love..don't know why I have been so bad w/ that!
ReplyDeleteI have seen some of your stuff and LOVE it, as usual!!! Hope you chicks are having fun w/ the new blog adventure!!! xoxox Leah
