This one was made in January 2010. The image was salvaged from an old card. One of the flower heads was previously decoupaged, so I left that on, just inking around the edges and glittering the centre. I wanted to alter it some more, though, so I stamped the harlequins on, using Versafine Onyx Black (third generation), then stamped the SU stamps 'bloom' and the 'blossom' definition over the top. The acetate butterfly was stamped quite a while ago, and the white ink has worn off in the middle, but I quite like the ethereal quality it has now as a result. The pearl sprays are deliberately left like that. I like the way they resemble catkins.. the little furry buds on a pussy willow. If you squint a bit....
