1. Love. These are the gorgeous flowers my husband gave me for Valentine's Day. They smell so wonderful!
2. Duplicate. This one took some thinking. I finally found a tutorial on making paper flowers; I took pages from the phonebook to create duplicate petals and then glued them together to form the flower. That counts, right? :) Click HERE for the tutorial.
3. Trend or Trendsetting. I took the suggestion of checking Twitter for what was trending; at the time, one of them was "What Women Want". Most women love sparkly jewelry, so I got out my costume jewelry stash (I used to recycle it into new jewelry pieces many, many years ago). I gathered some extra shiny ones in this pretty dish.
4. Paper. For this one, I took a photo of some of my latest watercolor practice pages. I used a Pixel Dust Photo Art texture called "life is good" over the top to give it a little more something.
5. Plastic. Another hard one...I couldn't figure out what to take a picture of for this prompt. Years back, I got fascinated with learning all about Polyshrink ("shrinky dink"). I spent a lot of time testing it, creating color samples, and experimenting with different effects and mediums. So, I gathered a bunch of my samples together and took this image.
Thank you for visiting! I look forward to seeing what others have come up with this week.
Wow! The second shot is amazing! Great set.
ReplyDeleteThese are great - I absolutely love your 'duplicated' shot and would love to see a tutorial on how to do that. I used to love watching a craft show where it seemed every other day someone was doing Polyshrink - beads, tiles, etc. I'm not sure how I resisted the temptation to try it (budget I suspect).
ReplyDeleteGreat set!
ReplyDeleteNice shots - you are very creative! I love your watercolour:)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great set of pictures - your flowers are beautiful (both the real and paper one) and you water colour picture is just lovely, you are clever.
ReplyDeleteSo creative! Although, isn't that going to make looking up phone numbers a bit more difficult? :)
ReplyDeleteAnd are those star-gazer lilies? I'm gradually learning more about flowers, out of necessity. I used to only know roses.
Love the flower from the phone book and your costume jewelry stash is delightful.
ReplyDeleteoooh beautiful set - I really like trending.

ReplyDeleteReally like all your entries. Not only is that paper flower beautiful, I really like how you chose to photograph it.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your Scavenger Sunday entries. Loved that paper flower, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteoh, your interpretation of TRENDSETTING & DUPLICATE are my favorites. Looking at that adorable handmade flower, I thought, that flower center looks like an earring. Well, I believe I got my answer with your next picture. Your jewelry looks beautiful --- all shiny, sparkly, and brillant in that turquoise bowl. WOW!
ReplyDeleteFun Paper flower and thanks for the tutorial.
ReplyDeleteLike!
ReplyDeleteAll of it ;-)
