Wish - Mixed Media Layout ~ Creative Embellishments February Challenge

Hi Scrappy Friends! It is February 1st, which means a new Challenge on the Creative Embellishments Blog! The challenge is as it typically is....be inspired by at least one element in the picture below and please let us know what you were inspired by in your post. The twist is white space. Do not forget to read the revised guidelines at the end of this post.
I was inspired by the circles in this month's photo and have used the Rings For So Many Things chipboard circles as a major design element in my layout. The circles were painted with a Jacquard Lumiere metallic acrylic paint in Halo Blue Gold. The title "Wish" (painted with Art Anthology Velvet Dimensional paint in Lagoon and then dry brushed with the Halo Blue Gold paint) is from the Dream Word Set - and I chose this title because my son is about to blow the fluff off the dandelion in this picture - which we always call making wishes.
I've used 13 Arts Faces of Spring papers and stickers for this layout and did some masking with a mixture of fibre paste and iridescent medium. I added some fine grit by 13 Arts in places and used 13 Arts pastel mists in turquoise and lime around the picture matting and to splatter the layout. 

Here are some close-ups and different angles!
