23 - Dear Franchu

This was tough!! And totally ot of my comfort zone. I really had a hard time with the colours. I'm still not totally convinced but I guess this is the best it gets this time! Quite a challenge to use pink in a layout about my grandson. I don't know if my son in law will approve! LOL
For the evidence I used flowers, bees and the stripes in the background Since the flowers looked a bit flat in the beginning I ended up cutting a second layer and raising it with tape. Some closeups here: http://www.fotomemorias-scrapbooking.blogspot.com.ar/2012/06/reto-23-de-csi.html
Testimony: Wrote my journalling as a letter
Thanks for looking!
