    Most likely the file is too large - you need to downsize it to web site size

    Can't wait to see it. I actually did something similar and also looked at leaves online and from those of life plants. I guess I will have to wait for the blocks to come in to see your interpretation.

    Let's see if I can post a pic this morning of my last poinsettia. It will go out in the mail as soon as hubby gets home and I have a car!!! The red one is my last poinsettia. See how the leaf differs from my burgundy. I got the leaf from the burgundy off a drawing. The red's leaf is a photo copy template of a leaf I picked off my actual poinsettia plant. lol I like them both. Hope all y'all do as well. This has been very fun. But remind me on the next swap... 4 sets is ALOT to do.....

    thanks sharonb. YOU are fast. Seems like I just posted. And you were right I had to shrink the photo. Which is weird. Sometimes it takes the larger size.

    They are both indeed stunning. I really like your realistic one better then mine. I just drew mine free hand after looking at pictures.

    Woohoo Sharon! The snowflakes are gorgeous. Never mind the difference in centers. Variety is the spice of life.
