I'm Still Not About Week#2 Yet??????????...So I Read Week#3 & I Got Inspired Right Away...I Went Over To The Pinterest Board & Looked Around...I Felt Inspired Right Away...So I Chose 5 Different Photos & Combined The 5 Visuals Together...Well...As I Saw Them Going Together...Here Are The 5 Visuals:

*I Know That Is A Lot To Take In...1st Photo:The Lady:The Flowers:Their Shape & Design:And Color...2nd Photo:The Orange/Yellow/Gold Colors:The Idea Of Nature Blended With Shapes...3rd Photo:Her Head:Her Long Hair:Nature Inspired:Outdoors...4th Photo:The Arrangement Of The Leaves:The Mandala Shape:The Layering:The Leaves...5th Photo:The Flower Itself:The Color:The Shape:The Round Center:The Flowers Arm Extending Out...
*The Main Component Of My Layout Is The Mandala!...So I Knew I Had Some Mandala Templates By NBK Design...But I Had No Idea How Complicated This Would Be To Create!...But I Never Seem To Do Simple Or Easy...Pause That Idea For A Second...I Took 2 Photos & Blended Them Together...A Lady Wearing A Hat & Dressed In The Colors Of Choice Mentioned Above...& A Flower In A Similar Color & In The Desired Shape As Per The Inspirations Above...So I Did That First...To Get My Image...Flowers Combined With A Lovely Lady Enjoying Nature...Here's The Combo Of The Two Pics...It Almost Seems A Shame Not To Have Been Able To Showcase This Photo Better On It's Own...Maybe Later...But For Now Here Is The Result Of The Two Photos Combined Together:
*So Now I Went Back To My Mandala Template & Used This Same Photo In Each Piece Of The Mandala!...All 31!Layers...YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...It Was A Bit Time Consuming...The Idea Here Was To Place Them All In Different Ways...No Two The Same...Because In Nature...No Two Flowers Are The Same...Just Like No Two People Are The Same...So After I Had All 31 Layers Filled!...I Tweaked Them A Bit...But Not Too Much!...I Had To Fill All The Gaps In Properly!...What Was I Thinking?...It Was A Bit Shocking To Me What It Looked Like After All The Layers Were Filled Though...But Neat...It Did Remind Me Of The Mandala Photo I Saw On Pinterest & All The Other Photos I Chose...The Last Part Was To Put The Heads/Faces In The Background!...Like Photo #3...I Guess I Was Channeling Mother Nature Too!...All In All I Used 31 Versions Of The Photo Combo Above!...To Fill All 31 Layers Of NBK's Mandala Template!...& The Same Photo Combo To Create My 4 Heads/Faces To Fill In The BG & Each Corner...
*So I Figure By Now...You Have Probably Nodded Off!...LOL!...So Exactly What This Means To Me...Ahhh!...That My Lilypad Friends...Will Be Open To Your Interpretations...I Would Have To Write A Whole Other Large Paragraph On That...If Anyone Is Still With Me...Don't Wanna Put You All To Sleep!..But If You Read What I Did Write Here...I Think You Will Get The Idea About What This Represents To Me!...& How Mother Nature Influences All Of Our Lives...In This Case...The "Flora"...
*For My Flora Connections Layout-I Used:Art And Nature-Collection/Including Mandala Template #1-By NBK Design
