Inspired By...

There is a great new photo to get your mojo going over on the Inspired By challenge blog! I loved the mint colored scales and chose to go with a mint floral basket filled with geraniums. My card is also a loose take on the sketch option. I started with Mint Julep patterned paper plus Mint Julep solid color paper by Papertrey Ink. 

I had this Extravagant Floral Frames die set on my desk from a previous project and decided to use it yet again and layered it over the dotted swiss paper. Florals were all die cut from Bristol Smooth paper then color blended with distress inks. Tiny white centers of geraniums were embellished with Cloud 9 Nuvo Dream Drops.
