i know it's winter in some places but here in fl. it's either summer, summer, or summer.
nevertheless, as we are heading into the spring season,
i'm gonna embrace it with a spring pic to celebrate this gorgeous weather we've been having.
today i'm gonna show you how i made this
bloom where you are planted scalloped sign.

it all started with a trip to hobby lobby
where i found this on clearance:

i immediately fell in love with the scalloped edges and knew i had to have it even though there are
no little ladies at our house. lol

so i painted the whole thing white.

and drew some tulips from inspiration here.
then i got my acrylics out and started painting.

after i painted the leaves and stems i started on the flowers then got cross eyed and decided to outline them first.

i'm a color fanatic so of course i had to use all kinds of colors in the tulip garden.

the "bloom where you are planted" is a sentimental quote for me as my parents who are in heaven always said that.
so for now i am trying to bloom as best i can :)
