Create your own flowers to use in scrapbooking.
You will need
Mura's Meister Copies.
Rope Texture
Open a new image 500*500
Draw guidelines at 100 and 250
You can experiment using different patterns and colours. I used a rope texture (supplied) for this particular flower.
Foreground #c9b389
Background rope texture, Angles O, Scale 10
Open preset tools, oval, line width one. and draw a petal shape oval that is from the top to the bottom
of your guidelines, width is your choice.
Select all > Select Float. Using your smudge brush set at 75 smear the rope effect so it gives just a mottled effect.
Then lighten the top of your petal and darken the bottom.
Light/Darken settings
You should end up with something like this
Merge all layers.
