Dahlia Delight Scanography ??
I’m working on another design for Petals as Paint. I am working on products with a couple Print on Demand companies to provide various price points for home decor, clothing and accessories. This one should look particularly pretty on scarves, pillows, and swimwear.
The focal point is pressed primrose while the accents are dahlia petals. The majority part is blue, purple, and green hydrangea petals. I love the textured undersides — so intricately beautiful!

You never know where my next design might come from…
A couple weeks ago I spent the weekend with two of my favorite people / my husband’s parents. She had a beautiful bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums and hot pink carnations. I was eyeing those lovelies for my next petals as paint… and here they are. She never lets us leave empty handed!
I dried them for a week in a tub of silica and they are perfectly preserved. And now they are happily becoming my next design!
I added in some white orchid petals, yellow spotted orchid petals, orange tiger lilies, a few random dahlias and some pink echinacea petals.
They are currently drying their second layer of clear acrylic and soon will be off to get scanned. The tile will be framed and put up for sale at Whatcom Art Market and the design will be transformed into home decor, clothing and accessories in my Etsy store – https://www.etsy.com/shop/RefindCreations33
Each one makes me very happy and I hope you enjoy the process and the final product!

Petals as Paint has transformed into stained glass effect. This one is magical. There are rose petals sunset clouds over trees made from elderberry blooms. A pretty field of blue hydrangea and a hedge of peegee hydrangea petals creates a peaceful scene between two panes of glass – like looking out a kitchen window as the summer sun sets in a blaze of glory. Framed in distressed wood this would look amazing hanging in a window with the sunlight shining through opaque glass. Be still my heart.
There is a lamp behind to give the effect of what it will look like if hung in a window

This one will go in Etsy store – search Refind Creations and order the original for $125. There is no other art so natural as Petals as Paint
I’m inspired to play in the petals for a few more weeks before turning back to working on my novel idea and waiting for my palette to be refilled with fresh “paints”!
Here’s what’s in process right now … along with a few more 4×4 Christmas themed tiles coming up next.
So fun!

This one looks like the beginnings of Christmas ornaments dangling.
I scanned handmade paper with Queen Anne’s Lace blossoms- looks like snowflakes – and winter is blowing in ..
