MFT Color Palette Challenge #1

The Challenge:


My Favorite Things has a color palette challenge this month, it is MFT classic color scheme, pink lemonade, sweet tooth and black licorice.



I am starting to collect MFT products these days and I love that color palette, how could I not play along?


I used a couple of MFT products here


1. I used the negative of Die-namis Chevron Cover-up for the background.






and 3. my favorite layered leaves Due-namics, I used this set a lot and you will see them soon 






......................

My daughter went back to NYC today, I am so sad.... and Papi too! (just look at that sad puppy face)

When are we going to see you again Dolce? Sop sop....
