Today I've created some fantasy flowers.
Note the flourish I tried to add on the end of the "s." It is supposed to match the "stems" of the flowers.
For this page, I began with 110 lb. cardstock, to which I added three colors of green and a bit of gold for the background. The flowers are washed and dried peanut butter cup holders and the stems are removed from recipes I used in a previous journal page. The flowers were covered with gold fluid acrylic paint. I was going to color all the stems, but decided that was too much bling. I'm not really a bling person.
Thanks so incredibly much for visiting today. I hope to also see you at Art Journal Journey. And I hope to catch up with everyone soon.

These reminded me of little chocolate cups. Very well done Elizabeth.
Hope you are recovering well from your eyes.
Cool! LOL, I´ve never heard of peanut butter cup holders. The shape reminds of some very, very sweet stuff my Grandma had. It was a pain, so sweet and she was always so proud to give them to me hence I "ate" them, LOL.
Thank you for the memory, "ach choi, ach choi"!
Beautiful, beautiful things.
I do hope you are recovering well.
Great page Elizabeth-very creative
Now we know: you must like peanut butter cups! Me too. I think we ate all the ones that were in the house.

Very creative! I DO love the background again!
Those are fabulous flowers. I like the idea of fantasy flowers. Maybe they can bloom outside right now in the cold. This is a clever page my dear friend. Love those flowers. Stay warm. And hopefully you're not in that bad weather I see on the news. Hugs-Erika
What a pretty way to do the stems! And peanut butter -- yum! This is a fun one.
I really thought the flowers were some sort of bottle caps. Brilliant on the use of PB cup papers. Stay warm and safe today.
Yummm :) I love those peanut butter cups, and this is such a fun use of the wrappers.
I love your fantasy flowers Elizabeth! Great use of the wrappers!
Hope you are keeping safe and well,
