Process: Botancial prints are traditionally very minimal in design. I wanted to maintain that style with a bit of an update.
I placed a few leaves on a crisp white background and positioned a SkinnyLined Overlay
and a splatter from MultiMedia Documents No.1 under the leaves.
To balance the page, I placed the book from MultiMedia Read No.1 at the bottom.
Layer with brushes from Notebook No.1 and Scanty JournalLines No.1.
I added the button for a little extra color. Complete the page with title (I used the Latin for Boston Ivy).
A smashing success. I love botanical prints and I love this. The vertical lines are a good choice.
 
not only does this reflect the change of season, but so many things ... even our own lives. love the simplicity. love the power.
 
hmmmm...what happened to my post? Maybe I made it from my iPad and forgot to hit enter. Anyway, I love this too, and added it to my favorites, AND plan to scraplift it. The blended notebook at the bottom is the cherry on the whipped cream.
