I tried to create a monochromatic green design. I used H2O pencils and dry chalks to get a softer colouring effect. The flower embellishments were created by folding scallop oval punch-outs. The tutorial for them are here on my blog. The pearl embellishments are from Blueberry Bear. The sentiment is from Create with TLC and can purchased here. The design papers are from Basic Grey and We R Memory Keepers.

Wow, Desire, this is absolutely stunning and I love that image, I just popped over to check out the blog and am now following.

I love your handmade flowers too, very creative. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to seeing all your new creations in 2014, XOX Lucy

Hi, Desire! I'm always so amazed at the height of our aloe blooms. Ours bloom a beautiful shade of intense salmon color, and often reach a good 4-5 feet tall. These are very old plants.
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful girl surrounded by roses is gorgeous! Love the color choices, and your beautifully folded floral designs around the edges. The tiny pearls on the flowers look great. so cute!
hugs,
