Happy together - crystal effects and titles


Here is a page I created using the May 1st sketch at Stuck Sketches.  I don't really know what it is about this page, but I just really love the way it turned out.  The color scheme, the flowers (which I won on a Sketches for All contest, BTW!), the silly pictures....it all just came together perfectly. 
 And here is a close-up of the title - Liz Goldhawk (who has a blog in the right hand column) inspired me to use some crystal effects, so I used it on my entire title in it and I loved the finish!  I had some aqua colored chipboard letters and my paper already had the word together on it, so with the crystal effects smeared across the letters, it really made it stand out.  Finally, The Pink Elephant contest this week was to use pink, so there is just a quart of pink on this page to make it perfect!
