Beautiful flower! Love the title and matting. :-)

Oh, my - Dot, this is just beautiful! Did you extract the flower? Gosh, it looks beautiful against that deep background - and I love the paper strip color beside the flower - what an amazingly beautiful layout, Dot! It's outstanding, and oh, so pretty!

Stunning layout and photo! I love the delicate pinks and lavender you used with the deep purple -- really gorgeous.

I also really like the black pieces in the background, your light journaling and vertical title.. Really beautiful page!

Gorgeous!!!

Stunning! I love how the flower pops right out and the rich BG color is wonderful! Nicely done!

Beautiful! I love the purple and peach with just a touch of lime green.

This is definately beautiful. Love the HHV! Also like the lily pads & flower on the lower corner.

The flower is just awesome. The colors are beautiful and I think the layout is perfect.

This is just so rich! I like the scratchy green on the purple and the bit of sparkle.

Beautiful page, Dot. Your colors are outstanding.

Just lovely. Very unusual and artistic treatment.

Dot, this is lovely. Beautiful photo of the Lily and I love the purple background with the green showing through.

Wow, Dot!! This is a very dramatic layout. The dark blue background really makes that beautiful flower pop off the page.

This is one of my favorites - I hope you're going to frame this one, Dot - the deep colors are just hypnotizing - it's so pretty! Had to see it again.
