Ro's NL Challenge Saturday 6-18-11 -- Peonies

Sensational! I would say that the challenge really brought out your creativity!

Oh wow, I really love the background papers. Great photos and layout.

Another beeeee-u-tiful botanical garden layout, Carol! I adore peonies! Pretty, pretty layout!

Just beautiful, Carol. Wonderful way to do the challenge.

Gorgeous layout, Carol. Your photos are so pretty and I love the whole "vintage" look to the page.

I also really like your background!

Love the way you antiqued your pictures with the vellum. Gives the feel of sitting on the veranda, drinking sweet tea and just enjoying the hot summer afternoon in Galveston - or Atlanta - or New Orleans.

This is really inspiring! What interesting techniques you used—from the painting look to your photos to the unusual way you ‘peeked’ into the bkg below and the embossed layer. Truly a wonderful LO.

This looks fabulous, Carol! I love the photos and textures, but especially the colors. Wonderful!

This is great! Love how you've used your papers- making them beveled and things. The textures on the photos a great!

Fantastic work! I love the way you've textured the photos. I almost want to reach out and touch the petals!
