Floral display on basket background

The background to this unusually pretty floral offering is not what you might think! A chevron metal pattern called 'Manhole' was covered with an 'Oak' pattern. The double-ended planter used the 'Distort - Polar coordinates' filter on a long horizontal rectangular copy of the background panel. The flowers were from the Elements 'shapes' menu, as was the bow. These were then coloured with a green to pink colour gradient. The 'Dodge' tool was used to add some high-lights.
