After spring comes summer! This tin turned out very bright and happy. I really love finding lace paper overlays that work properly with background papers. They can’t be too close in color, or it won’t stand out, but it can’t clash either, obviously. This one made a nice transition between the darker orange background and the lighter orange parts of the detail paper. I also like the way the detail paper looks like clouds, while the lace paper pattern looks kind of like a sunburst.
It makes me want to go to the beach. Hope you’re starting to have some warm weather wherever you are!
