Captain Corelli in Purple!
Monday, 10 December 2012
This was to be an anniversary scroll, using a reading from the wedding....
You can see from these two photographs how difficult it can be to match a colour from a picture. I had a photograph of a lovely bride wearing what she called 'mauve'.... which was a different tone from what I would call mauve. And so I used a variety of shades in the decoration of this piece... little pastel squares drifting over the page....
It is to be framed in a 12 x 12 inch frame, but we weren't sure whether the ribbon would be included inside the frame or not.... so, I left extra space at the top allowing the scroll to be trimmed from either top or bottom (or both) to fit.

wow, just wonderful and I hope they frame it in a shadow box so the ribbon will stand out... x
That would look good cat!
May this New Year be one of realized dreams… even those we did not realize we were dreaming!
