Lily in Blue

Hi everyone, Melissa here with a page I made using the beautiful Scraps of Elegance kit Lisa's Sweet September.

This is a photo of Lily Elsie, an actress in the early part of the 20th century. Since the page has a lot of blue, that's how I came up with the title.

I was inspired by a Scraps of Elegance sketch from January, 2014 for the design.

I made the big flower with a coffee filter, using a Martha Stewart flower as a guide.  I hand cut four pieces from the filter,and four pieces of blue tulle. I  put the paper in  a pool of blue watercolor. When dry I put  a tulle and paper layer together, and folded it in four. I then put it on a small circle of paper with glue on it.  I repeated this another three times.
