I decided to use Helping Me Grow and as lavender is one of my favourite flowers and scents. I just knew I had to have this stamp set when I saw it in the Occasions Catalogue as it attracted me straight away.
I stamped the flower in black Stazon ink on watercolour paper and then created my background. I really enjoyed painting the flowers as I find this technique very relaxing and very forgiving. I added some embellishment with parchment, silver thread and splatters.
I also gave the flower heads a subtle sparkle and this time I tried using my embroidery light to catch that elusive Wink of Stella.
I think I still need to work on my photography skills though.
