Monochromatic SU Flower Shop with En Francais

Hey, crafty friends, I am the hostess this week for the Friday Mashup # 149. I decided to lift our spirits from the winter blues by asking for some pretty flowers with an monochromatic theme to mash things up.

I think Holly, our wonderful administrator, subliminally put pink in my mind…I don’t know if you can tell but I covered the En Francais background with vellum- in person- a beautiful soft touch. I paired up the SU Petite Petals with the SU Flower Shop- don’t you think they were just made for each other?

I also played with my photo, too. I added a matte finish to the subtle monochromatic pink…What do you think of it?
