Purple Geraniums, IC1030

Photo Details

Poster: Kalla Walla

Stacy is our hostess and has a wonderful site for this week's Inspiration Challenge. I was inspired by this African Violet Painting. I loved the pot of purple flowers and the touch of purple on the leaves. I die cut and sponged all my pieces. I assembled the pieces and added the arch to ground the pot. I meant to do a background but I found this paper that I really liked. Added a sentiment and some stickles for the flower centers and gems.

The sponging on these geraniums is very pretty. Great design.

What beautiful African Violets. The color is stunning, and the sponging technique really brings out the texture.

How creative to use the geranium die for African Violets! I must remember that as I have this die! They are so pretty in the pot and framed in the dome die cut!
