Nance has created this awesome layout, (which I have rotated anti-clockwise 90 degrees):-
Regular visitors will know that I love to play around with my crafting tools & create different items with them. For this camellia I have used the small snowflake from the Snow Flurry Bigz die to create the flower stamens (4 layers) & the small, round ornament from the Ornament Framelits die set to create the petals. I folded a piece of white cardstock & placed the fold near the top of the ornament die, to cut a joined pair of petals, like this (I think I had 10 pairs.):-
I sponged ink around the edges of the petals before I misted them with alcohol to scrunch them. This made the ink bleed softly into the petals & create a lovely natural look.
Here is a close-up of the bloom:-
