I might be in a bit of a scenic rut, but I can't help it, I love this view to Palos Verdes in the south, and I captured it with some yellow lupines this time. For some variety, I added a few more photos on the lower left, taken the same day.
Background is Homemade Solid Paper 4 (two copies, with the center blended out).
For blending I used 5 copies of Paper FotoBlendz #3, arranging them for some variety.
ArtPlay Daffodil frame used for the yellow lupines photo, and frames from the Homemade Artsy Layered Template used on the lower left.
To explain the "secret ingredient" title, I added a MM Sun.
Added a MM Spring flower, adding some dimension to the elements.
I needed more orange, so I added the 'seeds' from MM Homemade, recoloring them to orange, then duplicated a few of the orange seeds and scattered them over the page.
