Chillaxin'....CA

My beautiful Laura, Mrs. Bean, on our vacation to visit her brother in CA. We went to Geoffrey's for lunch and while waiting for the valet Laura had a few minutes to chill out and relax before the drive back from Malibu.
I wanted to use this pic, and although it screamed for orange tones, I went with the colours in her dress and coat instead. After having migraine headaches and nausea for weeks now, I was happy to be able to scrapbook today, headache & nausea free.
Laura, thank you for the large pink flowers - I used one row of petals to make the bud; and also thanks for the blue distress ink.
Thanks to all who leave a comment or vote for me; it is much appreciated and makes this old lady very happy, LOL.
