Welcome to the BasicGrey Soleil Blog Hop! You should have arrived here from the blog of Els Brige.
The bright, unapologetic hues of light dancing through the atmosphere, refracted from a prism or reflecting off the water are captured in Soleil, a collaborative collection by BasicGrey and Sassafras. This line is both serene and invigorating with its harvested-from-the-earth fruit and flower colors like soft lavender, juicy peach, tangerine, blueberry juice and watermelon. Let its calming yet spirited nature inspire your creative soul.
Soleil is so gorgeous. I've always been a fan of BasicGrey AND Sassafras and the mix is just amazing. Soleil is awesome for all kinds of photos, but for summer ones, it's just perfect! Here I used one of my favorite pieces of paper as the background, I just love those Sassafras inspired backgrounds that add so much interest and depth to the background.
