Just be U...........

I've wanted to put these photos on a layout for a while, so I started playing around with colors, which I thought worked really well with these photo's.




Here are a few close ups of the flowers which I made using the cricut. I also cut the butterflies with the cricut. The stem of leaves is kaiser chip board, and a pretty doily .


Olive Green is not a favourite colour of mine, but I think it worked well the the photos.
So that's my simple layout.................Would you call it minimal ? There is a word for layouts with not much on them, but I can't think of it at the moment!

Thanks so much for stopping by........its a beautiful day in Brisbane , so I'm off the enjoy the sunshine.
