Scrap Around The World February challenge

For the February challenge at Scrap Around The World, the challenge was to use the mood board as below:

Now ordinarily I am not a lover of all things green, but this mood board did speak to me, and after seeing so many of the gorgeous layouts going up on facebook, I thought why not - give it a go, it's a challenge after all. 

I had a couple of photos I was looking at scrapping for the challenge, but decided on this one, of these really funky lily pads in the Singapore Botanical Gardens, taken on our holiday there last year. 

I was inspired by the colours in this mood board, and the flower in the girls hair. 

I was given some old flowers from a friends mothers craft stash, the organza lilies that I placed on the layout. I think they finished off my layout. I have also included some Little Birdie burlap flowers, some resin flowers and paper flowers, so a range of different types of flowers. I really enjoyed getting creative with the background, with the texture paste, stencil, misting and stamping and just letting it all happen. 

Thanks for the challenge Scrap around the World. 

Thanks for looking and any comments you may leave.
