Photo Details

Poster: lacyquilter

Created for a sketch challenge on Julee Tilman's blog.

I love having the freedom to color outside the lines, so this flower is growing beyond the limitations of the oval. Leaf & stem are cut freehand.

The horizontal strip is rather crooked, because when I put it on the card, the glue stuck so fast, I couldn't move it.
