Inspiration Avenue Challenge-Blossom

My Inspiration Avenue sister, Shelly, provided us with the topic of Blossoms this week in the hope that it would nudge spring for those that are still buried in winter weather.  Well, I guess she succeeded here because the weather was in the 90's today.  In fact, spring got nudged so hard that today it felt like summer.  Oh well, no complaints from me.  I know some of you out there would welcome any signs of spring.

I'm sharing a 4x4 image I created for a swap over at Alphastamps.  The first example is the digital piece I created.  The second shows the image after I added embellishments like beads, glitter, and vintage flowers.  I hated to mail it off for the swap but will be very happy to receive three original pieces from other artists.


I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!  See you next time.
