This is gorgeous and I love your sketch/watercolor - it's beautiful.   I like how you included the original photo and framed it so elegantly.  I also really like the line you created with the flowers and pearls - it's lovely.
PS Wondering what the photo technique is you've used here and on another page?  I really like how it comes out!

This is exceedingly gorgeous! I love the swirl of blossoms that you created, the photo treatment is so creative and the bow on the bouquet that is also sketched looks like one can reach out and touch it. It’s gorgeous.  The diamond swirl is beautiful. So much detail to look at!  I really love everything about this layout!

Marilyn, it has been a few weeks since I created this LO, so I don't remember exactly what I did to the main photo. I am pretty sure that I did a two-stage filter in PSE. I think I did a water color filter and then applied a colored pencil filter and messed with the edge settings. Doing the water color first sort of fudges up the edges, making them less distinct for the colored pencil filter. I also erased in different opacities along the edges and a little through the middle to let the background paper bleed through and give it an uneven, mask-like edge. I hope this helps.

@Celestine Thank you, yes that is helpful.  :)  I understand that often I can't recreate or remember something I've done - even immediately after!   I know Jody used to use a  "Find Edges" layer about a colored one too.  This gives me a few things to try, thank you!

This is an amazing page and a great way to remember a special bouquet.  The swirly flowers, ribbons and pearls frame it beautifully.  The many different shades of pink add wonderful texture and depth. I love the sketch treatment on the picture of the bouquet.  And I agree that the ribbon is very touchable.

What a beautiful page you have created with the photo of your lovely bouquet. The effect on the photo looks so good.
