CC1103 = Old Olive, Misty Moonlight, Fresh Freesia
Dessert = DP
Freehand watercolored the lavender bouquet using today's colors (or as close as possible). I could not find a DP that seemed to work. So I created my own with an old technique of using VM on a stamp and then just heating to give a tone-on-tone effect. No EP used. It is a subtle design.

Gorgeous lavender bouquet. I love the colors together in your painting. I admired your paper in the background, then I read your description. You created a subtle & beautiful piece. It is just right for your lovely flowers. Nicely done!

Sallie, I love how delicate this little spray of flowers is. Those colours lend themselves beautifully to this airy bouquet you created. Love it. That neutral dsp is perfect for this with that subtle and elegant, tone on tone pattern.
