I loved this challenge, and I also really enjoyed seeing everyone's entries for this! Symmetry is so inspiring and interesting to me.

I drew inspiration from photo #8. Is it a kiwi fruit? I think so, but I'm not totally sure about that. Anyway, I looked at it and wanted to emulate it by making a paper rosette with a flower photo in the center. Here's how it turned out:

Image

It doesn't fit inside my pocket page, so I taped it to the outside of the page, haha.

Thank you so much for the challenge! I really appreciate having both the inspiration and the camaraderie.

I hope this one counts.  :)  It's kind of a combination of picture 3 and picture 6.  I took this picture in front of our house in Florida and 2011.  I used inks to mimic the colors in the sky on the sunburst.

Here's mine. I love pineapples so I knew I would be doing that one. The large pineapples are stamped, then diecut out then watercolored with Tim Holtz watercolor pencils.

Perfect Amy!  I did that with one of my items too, taped it to the outside, LOL. I am glad you enjoyed the challenge and the camaraderie!  Stick around, there is always action here!
