Well, I'm on a springtime roll it seems! Everything fresh and spring-like is on my mind and I can't seem to stop myself!
I pulled out this older Our Craft Lounge set called Oriental Garden that had never seen ink in my house before! I'm still not sure why I paired the images with a more subdued, vintage-looking paper, but it just seemed to work at the time!
And I don't know if you noticed in the image at the top of the post, but the lanterns are either doule or triple layered!
Hope you like it as much as I do!

Broni, this is pretty. I didn't think anything of the paper until I read the blog. I think this is a pretty combination. Thanks for sharing.
