I got some double use out of my Prima blooms!







With the nice weather ending faster than you can blink, I thought I'd get some nice whimsicle pic's of the girls outside. I made a flower wreath for Chloe's hair out of a bunch of Prima blooms (then used the same blooms in the layout!!) ....I used mostly BasicGrey papers for this one. For texture I did a lot of paper tearing and curling, added blooms, embossed chipboard, cut out butterflies from one of the BasicGrey patterned papers and also did a little stitching. I also used a Souffle pen in white to draw the dandelion blooms then added tiny crystals to the tips to add more glitter and texture.
