Love ~ Scrapbook Layout for DD Amanda's Album ~ Practical Scrappers Challenge

Hello everyone!  It's Friday, and tha means it's time for me to share my layout for this weeks Practical Scrappers Challenge.  We were to use any kind of flower on our project this week.  Well if you know anything about me at all, it's I LOVE PRIMA FLOWERS!!!  So that's what I used on my layout.  The vines are Prima Flutter Vines and the flowers are Prima Alabaster ~ Alissa, and started out as white, but then I sprayed them with the Black Cherry and Tattered Rose Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, and I absolutely looooove the way they turned out...  The photo was taken a little over 2 years ago at my daughter Amanda's Wedding.  I can't believe that they are now expecting their first little baby, a boy, in June..  Where has the time gone!!  
Okay before I get the tissues out I better get this uploaded.  lol
Here's what I used:
Doodlebug Beetle Black Crushed Velvet CS
Bazzill Basics Square Hot Pink CS
Creative Imaginations ~ Karen Russell Narratives Overlay
EK Success ~  Dainty Black Flourishes ~ Stickers
Prima Alabaster Flowers Alissa  ~ sprayed with
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist ~ Black Cherry and
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist ~ Tattered Rose
Prima Flutter Vine
Prima Say It In Crystals ~ Black
Okay now, if you haven't made anything for this challenge, you're missing out on a lot of fun.  And who doesn't have flowers, or, better yet make your own...  Just go check out some of the other DT's projects and see what they did!!  You have until Saturday evening to get something uploaded..  So, come on and let's have some fun!!
You know I appreciate you dropping by!
Have a wonderful weekend!
And ya'll come back anytime, ya hear!!!
Hugs  :o)
