Mix It Up Monday: Flowering Fields with Botanical Blooms DSP

It’s Mix It Up Monday again and time for another colour combination from my In Color charts. It may be a little late in the day but it IS still Monday and I’ve just made this project, loosely based on this one by Jo Blackman (Jo’s is nicer).

I confess my version didn’t go smoothly. In fact, it wasn’t until I sat at the computer, edited the photo in Photoshop Elements, created my Mix It Up Monday colour combo in My Digital Studio and started writing this blog post that I realised I’d completely forgotten to use Delightful Dijon! Which is very odd because, if I look at the colour combinations I’ve used so far, it seems Delightful Dijon is my favourite In Color this year. 

So I hurriedly added some Dijon spatters and a butterfly so that I was fulfilling the brief. In the nick of time!

The project uses the gorgeous Flowering Fields stamp set, which you can earn free during Sale-a-Bration with a £45 order. I stamped some of the images in various colours (not Delightful Dijon!) and added some Timeless Textures spatters. The bow took me AGES, but then I’m rubbish at bows. 

Anyway, the recipe…
