Growing With You and for You

five pink and orange collage flowers

These blooms were inspired by a few flowers on my pinterest board. I do keep a collection of flowers, trees, culture and of course color. I’ve been feeling extra appreciation for nature. Nature is always with us. It’s in every breathe.

It’s July and time to begin the self love project. The ideas will come from my self love pinterest board. Good timing on creating these heart petal collage flowers.

Siempre,

Have you tried collage? I’d love to see your work. To see finished pieces of my work visit here.

Not sure when I created these flowers, probably a few months ago. The flower petals look like hands. The words need to be rewritten. I will be working on lettering this week and writing for the book. I want to do more eraser stamping florals and…
