Fusion #2 - Flower Bouquet

I hope you are having a great weekend!  Lots going on at our house -  and YES my Christmas trees are still up!  Thank goodness they are artificial.   I'm going to have to get cracking on that this weekend.  Did I ever tell you that one year that was my Valentine's Day present?   Oh well... the sparkling lights  are fun and I can just tell the neighbors I'm having a party!  HAHA!  I don't think they'll believe me either.  Just sayin'.   It's cold here too!  Good thing I can make my very own flower garden any time I like.  (Another advantage to crafting!)

Have you played at Fusion yet?   I think I'm hooked.  You get a photo inspiration and a sketch design.  You can follow the sketch OR be inspired by the photo... or yes.. you can even FUSE the two together.  That's exactly what I did with this one.  I thought I'd mimic that beautiful bouquet so  I layered rolled roses, and flowers on a wood grain background.  My bling?  Because of course I HAVE to have a little right?  It's the button flower centers.     

 Thanks for stopping by to have a look!  Have a great day!
