sfalice caught on fast, this is one from the archives that I never paid much attention to.

The border was created in several steps. Copied the black from the background, grabbed the color of the peony, then I created the cream border, came back added the black, then another cream border, followed with the wider black border. THEN inspiration hit and I selected the wide black border and cloned the edges of the peony onto the wide black border. I hope this made some kind of sense.

Forebokeh, anyone? lol My eyes were instantly drawn to the upright petals and the drops on them. Cool border!

I love it! It looks like an egg shell with a flower bursting out! I love the water droplets too.

Artistic, graceful, all those good words. Nicely presented and a fresh point of view for a flower.

Now, where - at this time of year - did you ever find a peony!!!
