Verve May Week 1 Inspiration Challenge

May brings a new month and that means we get to move to another room in the house for our inspiration pieces over at the Verve Forum challenges on SCS.  This month, Amber has taken us to "hobby rooms".  Some day I hope to have a dedicated hobby room but for now, I just wish mine looked as neat as some of the ones in the inspiration pictures LOL! 

For some reason, it took some doing to select an inspiration room this week, but I finally settled on this one.  I focused on the turquoise and green panel hanging on the wall that had the daisies on it which is  located at the right hand side of the wall (you can click on it to enlarge it if you like).  Figured these were colours I could work with and hey, it had flowers on it LOL!

Out came my trusty Martha Stewart daisy punch for the flowers and I scored the the green panel to form a diamond pattern as per the pattern on the wall hanging.  The three dots on the sketch gave me grief so I settled on using butterflies, though in hindsight I could have made the green panel longer and used some ribbon and a bow there - darn hindsight!  The butterflies were not doing it for me so I added butterfly trials, but not sure I like them.  Actually, I don't like them at all, but what is done is done and I'm going to have to live with it - LOL!

Wishing you a a fabulous day and I hope Spring has sprung in your neck of the woods like it has here.  My iris are in full bloom, as is the grace ward, and my rhodos are exploding.  Even better, I now have my hanging baskets on the deck so life is good :)   

Thanks for popping in today!  Back on Sunday with the new Curtain Call Colour Challenge.
