The UK seems to already be into Springtime with tons of bulbs coming through into such pretty blooms and nice weather nearly warm enough for shorts!
Around the corner from my In-Law's is a huge Hawthorne tree that just bursts into an amazing amount of blossoms in the spring - I love watching the tiny buds grow and open and show off their delicate petals in clusters of wonderfulness.
I wanted to bring out the delicate white and yellow in the flowers and started with the awesome twine from the Funday Kraft - Everyday Fun. I then added a tiny mat of white to my papers to lighten the kraft papers away from the black tones.
I used the Everyday Fun Kraft Funday papers as they have a subtle yellow in their colours and teamed them up with the lovely buttons from the Lost & Found 2 Sunshine release.
I used the sweet wood banners and some of the trim and chipboard embellishments to give it some extra interest as I went with a star theme.
and half way through this layout, I was inspired to make a second one along the same paper layers going with the theme "growing" but using blue as the highlight colour.
Every mother has one of these sheets or pieces of wall where the kids are measured and compared to the previous one. something so simple that shows just how quickly time is passing by as my kids grow tall.
I used the same cluster style of embellishments using the fantastic new My Minds Eye Jewels along with the brads and chipboard buttons from the Funday Kraft release.
I hope you are inspired to create something to celebrate Spring.
