I knew which photo i wanted to use as soon as I read the challenge, it is of my Granddaughter Isabella and her partner Connor on her Year 10 graduation night. Isabella purchased the dress in L.A. when she was on a dance trip to Disneyland  earlier that year.

Something Blue: Blue flowers stencilled, butterflies. Isabella dress, Connor's tie. Lots of blue.

Fussy cut flowers from from  Knickers and Corset, layering them around photo mats and over the stencil flower leaving the flower at the top.
I dye cut several butterflies out of "Pinafore" and "Knickers" and placed them around the fussy cut flowers.
Out lined the leaves and stem on bottom flower with the gold gel pen
