Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday to you.
I know this may come as a shock, but I bought more flowers last week and thought I'd take a few photos so we could revel in their prettiness together. Once again, the Stock was calling my name and I gave in to their charms. I have to tell you, they smell just as wonderful as they look. I really can't believe it took me so long to discover them.
For some reason, this bunch seems so much fuller and fluffier than the last one that I got...maybe it's a different variety. I paired them with some chamomile blossoms. Remember? I showed you those last time. I think the mix has an old-fashioned quality. I like the little bit of messiness...as if it was plucked straight from the garden and arranged on a moment's notice.
Along with the ironstone pitchers, I added a skeleton key and an old postcard to give things a little more vintage charm. And, since it is Texture Tuesday, I layered on one of Kim Klassen's textures...yesteryear. Which I thought was quite fitting for my photos :)
Well, that's that! Oh, just a FYI...I'll be back tomorrow for a little announcement. So until then...
Tricia ♥

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, as always, and thank you for beautifying my day!
Beautiful pictures...such wonderful effects. I love stock and you are so right, the scent is amazing. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteTricia,
ReplyDeleteThese photos are simply stunning!! I can't wait to get Photoshop for my birthday so I can use Kim's textures. She told me I could use Picnik with her textures too, but I have no idea how to do that. Do you have any experience with Picnik?
Have a beautiful day.
Sincerely,
Melinda
Gorgeous! I love the soft colours and your compositions!
