Don't you just love spring?  It is my favorite time of year.  Today's project is a Shabby Chic layout of my Niece Adalyn at Easter last year egg hunting.   
 
 
 These gorgeous Botanicals from Petaloo complimented Marion's paper lines beautifully! Here are the products I used to create this layout.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The flowers remind me of the azaleas blooming in my front yard at the moment.  I wanted to create a Shabby Chic Mixed media layout that I could hang on my fireplace mantle, and bring the spring in doors.  Marion's Never Grow Up line had these beautiful spring patterns that made the entire piece come together.   
 
 
 
 
I have created a process video showing you how I made the layout!
