We Love Chocolate Baroque challenge - Bright and Sunny Colours

 The theme for this month is to use Bright and Sunny Colours.

Hope the weather takes notice of this?

I have used the Chocolate Baroque image Canary Bird Rose.


I must admit that I have a thing about a lot of images having too many leaves and not enough flowers, but in this case the flower is so large that it stands out agains all the leaves, especially in bold and bright colours.
Swiss Dots embossing folder coloured to match the image. and as I sometimes do, I have paper pieced the flower!

Chocolate Baroque will be on Hochanda - the craft store on the 7th of May.

Thanks for popping by and for  any (good or bad) comments you are kind enough to leave. Please do pop over to the challenge blog to see the lovely creations from the team.

It is a gorgeous flower isn't it Kath, one of my CB floral favs as well and looks glorious in the orange and yellow shades. I think the leaf/flower balance is good on this one as the leaves are fairly small.

Enjoy the rest of the long weekend.

I was really interested to read you had paper pieced your flower Kath. You have picked the paper really well and it looks as if the flower is catching the light. Love these bright and sunny colours too. Vicky x
