Somehow I managed to plan this layout without having a picture in mind to go with it. I'd cut the frame for my "Beautiful" layout and then just dumped the negative part down on the bit of red cardstock. The next day I saw it lying there and just had to turn it into a layout.
I inked the cardstock using a Maya Road mask, stitched the paper onto the cardstock, made the butterfly, laid out all the crochet, flower, bird and leaf parts... then realised that I hadn't really thought it all through!
Finally went with this picture solely because I'm wearing a green t-shirt and I'm outside, so I sort of match both colour and theme! Even managed a suitable title. Quite happy with the way this turned out.

Gorgeous page! I love the misting and I think you did a great job!
It's such a gratifying feeling when a layout just falls together like that. Great page. Cute kid ;-)
Your masking looks so great I thought the paper was store bought
I just pinned your layout to my Pinterest...I love masking, bracket paper and grid paper, but have a hard time usinng them and making them "look right". Much less using all 3 together!!! PERFECT!
