In this video I've had a few requests to do a more traditional bloom so we're having some fun with that here. I hope this video is helpful and inspiring for you and you enjoy watching this half as much as I enjoyed creating it!

A lot of what you see being created on my channel when ready will end up in my Etsy store. Some pieces if they translate well to digital will also make it to my RedBubble, Society6 & Spring shops so if you see a design you like please check out my links below.????????????????
