Hi Peeps! Do you ever visit other people's blogs and see a colour combination that makes your little heart flutter? This happens to me every so often .... and when I saw these colours on Heather Pulvirenti's blog, I was a lost woman!
And then this sketch from 2S4Y ....
So after a lot of inspiration from people and flipping and mirroring the sketch, it ended up here ...
I saw a link to a You Tube Video in this post on Maile Belles blog, for making these flowers ....
I added a little Versmark and Gold Embossing powder to the edges of things to try and make the embellishments look more sumptuous and Baroque :0)
Thank you to WPlus9 and 2S4Y for the opportunity to play along with them - and for all of the lovely inspiration!
Blessings!!
