Pink Lemonade and Cotton Candy..... Color Combos Galor #184

Hello Again :)
Just posting my layout for this week's 
Color Combo's Galore Challenge

 Aren't those Colors just Totally Gorgeous????
 And they do just remind me of Pink Lemonade and Cotton Candy....

"Love Vintage"
Vintage Images from Magic Moonlight

I so wanted to create something soft and sheer and positively romantic....

The other part of the Challenge was to be Inspired by
The Fashion Shoot and the Use of Sheer Fabrics....

So have used the gorgeous sheer crepe organza flowers 
By Prima in "Lemonade" and "Blush"
And the "Pink Organza" Rose Ribbon by Teresa Collins....

The gorgeous frame and other laser cut pieces
Are by Dusty Attic....

 It took me ages to work out why I loved this palette so very much.....
It reminded me of something....????

And then the penny dropped......:)
Another of my Favorite Layouts... I used a very similar palette...

"Cherish"
