I used an image of my journal and Twinkling H20 watercolours, which I had been working on earlier. I had used my 50mm 1.8 lens so that I could get that sweet depth of field.I added a gradient using a soft pink to pick up some of the colour in the journal and the one paint pot. In Lightroom, I edited Kim's texture, Edith, changing it from a gold colour to a pink tone and then added it with a soft light blend mode at a low opacity (around 35% or so). The text was added using the font Sweetly Broken, and I picked a very soft pink shade from the image for my text colour. I also had to add a bit of a drop shadow to get the text to stand out enough to be legible without having to go to a darker font colour.
