Lily of the Valley for Doodle Pantry

More colouring! I think I might enjoy deciding what colour the flowers are going to be more than I love colouring the flowers. OK, well maybe not more but this choice was really easy! There are only pink and white lilies of the valley and I went traditional. I think it would make a great wedding card!

I couldn’t decide what DP to use. Green overwhelmed the leaves making them blend in. All the colours I tried, even pastels seemed too strong for tiny white flowers. So I went with all white. I mean, why not? It is elegant and sweet.  The background is scored in a diamond pattern to give some texture. I haven’t done this before and I see it over and over again and never get to trying it so here it is! Finally! And I got to try my pansy Punch-Around-The-Page rather than just using the border punch.
