Lady Slipper

I'm joining Texture Tuesday today with an image from a recent visit to our local conservatory.

I love orchids - especially lady slippers (it's our state flower! - it's hard to believe that they can survive our cold winters!)

This pink one is so pretty and so delicate.

I used one layer of Kim's "Pin It Only #8" and one layer of "Pin It Only #1"  - gosh I love this set of Pinterest only textures.




Have a beautiful day!

Be Wonderfully Odd!

  6. Oh, yes! A beautiful orchid! Do you grow them at home? Years ago we had friends who had an orchid nursery, it took a lot of work.

  9. Love your edit for this floral picture. Looks like the image was taken in a conservatory and the soft light is gorgeous. Every detail of the flower so perfectly in focus and yet almost magical in the light.
