It is always fun to create cards from my freshly pressed flowers. The first group of 5"x7" cards feature pressed larkspur and delphinium freshly harvested from my garden.
I preserved this 14" x 18" bridal bouquet for my great niece. Many of the flowers were pretty rough by the time I got them but I was still able to create a beautiful memory keepsake for her. By the way, her wedding ceremony and reception were amazing!
I'm always honored to preserve flowers associated with the loss of a loved one. Sometimes all it takes is a single rose, a stem of liatris and a stem of larkspur from a funeral to create a beautiful 11" x 14" framed memory.
I grew up in a home just a few yards from Cayuga Lake in NYS. It was not uncommon for water to splash on my bedroom window when the water was rough. It required climbing many, many steps to go anywhere, but it seemed worth it to me at the time. If I were to return to living on the water front, this could be my dream home. I would be happy renting it for a week or more when vacationing! How about you?
It is 11" x 14" framed. The water and sky were made from hydrangea. The house was made primarily from fall sumac leaves of various shades.
I absolutely love peonies. They have such vibrant colors and great color retention. When making this 16" x 20" framed picture, I was envisioning fire works and sought to create an interesting sense of motion when selecting the botanicals. This one may be hard to part with but is for sale.
I created this sea turtle picture after my first one generated so much interest. The turtle was made from brown magnolia petals, skeleton and late fall rusty brown leaves along with banana peel and a little white poplar. The sea was adorned with a variety of botanicals over a marbled paper background.
It is 11" x 14" framed. I hope you like it!
