THREE MUSES CHALLENGE 55 - BUTTONS AND BOWS



Florence has a date this evening and wants to make just the right impression. She decides on BUTTONS and BOWS because they make her feel feminine, interesting, a little bit daring and .........



colourful!

Bev is our host this week at the Three Muses and she's chosen BUTTONS and BOWS as her theme. Thanks Bev, I really enjoyed this one.

    I wonder if those earrings are telling her when to wait, stop or go!! Sort of blingy traffic lights and guardian of her morals.

    This is fantastic, Ann. I love its whimsicality and its humour. Great artwork.

    What a fantastic earring design, Ann! I'd certainly wear such a jewel if I had one. Your pair of images is very interesting: it shows what a dramatic effect colours have in an image. Great work!
