New Obsession

So I have this new obsession with the color orange. I want to use it all the time in my layouts. Not sure why, it is not a color I decorate with or would ever wear...Here is my newest layout. I handcut the flowers and vine from a piece of We R Memory Keepers patterned paper.
Journaling reads: Dear daughter, so don't you look all sweet and innocent here, doe-eyed & serene. Except you were all fired up and refusing to sit on my lap during the hay ride to the pumpkin patch. I asked, "Please sit." You replied, "No Mommy. I don't want to." with that tone and famous eye roll. You wiggled, kicked, and complained until you were off the seat and on the floor. Then you looked at me with this face. Yep, we battle, you & me. I am afraid to see you at age thirteen. We will rumble. Just remember, you won this battle,but dear Ella, I will win the war! So fitting. Ella is a fireball, but so am I...
