This spectacular photograph was taken by Sharon Fritchman when she went on her morning walk, then posted it on FB. I loved it so much and asked her if I could copy it to make something with it. She said sure, she would be honored! I hope this layout will almost do it justice!

First, the Baker's Dozen challenge is what I had in mind when I went through all my papers and found this Glitz Laced with Grace Polka Dot that I thought was perfect for the picture. Then I used a Ranger Dina Wakley's Little Birdies stencil and Simon Hurley's Lunar Paste in Guppy was next. I like how it looks when the light shines on it. The picture is framed with Spellbinders A2 Borders Bracket One. Underneath the picture is some burlap that I brushed some white Gesso on it to tone it down a bit and match the blueish color in the picture.

I stamped the trees and butterflies, diecut the flowers that were from Amazon that Sam got me and the bigger flower was a diecut from Marylou. The center was an eggshell mosaic that I made many years ago with Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks in Watermelon, Sunshine Yellow and Metallic Gold. The Romantic Vines leaves were from Spellbinders. On the smaller flowers, I used my Seth Apter - Taos Sunset embossing powder. I really like how they look. I was inspired by a card that Petra made for me where she also used that embossing powder. I posted a closeup of the flowers so you can see the embossing powder and eggshell mosaic better. The diecut I used with my journaling was from Amazon. I can't recall where the pretty doily came from, but it has been in my stash for ages! The buttons also from my stash are black pearl and very old. I altered the keys, the stickers on the left top and bottom are Momenta, the birds are the last of Martha Stewart that I had and butterflies are from Reneabouquets.
