I love bonsai, I just can't grow them. This picture was taken by my daughter Saundra (used with permission) at the Pacific Bonsai Museum, Federal Way, WA, June 2013.
Construction: I started with ArtPlay Palette Sirenic Artsy Paper #2. I then placed Jouer FotoBlendz No 1 #1. I clipped the photo to the fotoblendz layer. I placed Artsy Transfers Sirenic #4 under the FotoBlendz.
I used ArtPlay Palette Sashay Lace in 2 places after rotating and flipping one.
For the cluster, I used the Artplay Palette Sirenic Leaves Green and Flower Bud Pink. I placed Button Threadz No.1 #6 on top of the flower. I added a white stroke to Love WordART “Blooming Marvelous”, making it a sticker. I added Love WordART Mix No.2 wood “Love”, recoloring it gray and then duplicated it using Blending Multiply. I also added Love WordART Mix2 word transfer “Inhale” using Blending Darken under all layers.
