Scrapbooking Global Challenge - scrap layout

Hello and Welcome to my contribution for a scrapbooking challenge!!  

I get so much inspiration from this amazing group on Facebook.  This month, the challenge is to springboard from the inspiration of this lovely double spread.  

I've used this layout to create a double spread featuring the totally gorgeous Forever Greenery paper and the coordinating stamp set Forever Fern.  I've also managed to incorporate the new colour Just Jade at the top of my page.  

I've had to adapt my page a little to cater for the different sizes of my photos, and so the paper embellishment is changed to a circle arrangement using Gold Hoops and the Forever Flourishing dies.  

The greeting is die cut from black card and the Well Written dies and mounted onto the top of white ribbon from the Flowers for Every Season ribbon combo pack.  

There are a lot of different greens on my page!!  The base colour is Old Olive and then I've got a layer of Shaded Spruce topped with the Just Jade.  The embellishment clusters include Pear Pizzazz, Pretty Peacock and Basic Black.

The stamping on the edge of the Just Jade card is from the Forever Fern stamp set and stamped with Shaded Spruce.  

My finishing touch is these sweet In-colour enamel dots in the Just Jade.  

So, do you think my pages look similar to the challenge?  Having a layout to copy really does help a page to come together more quickly!!
