I wanted to try to recreate this with a diecut, but didn't have an allium die - so I've used the Memory Box Chloe die to give a similar effect, adding a sprig of foliage cut with a Spellbinders Sprigs die. The diecuts are a pearlescent dark brown in real life, but I think the reflection from the pearlescence has made them look almost black in the photo. The background is made by covering an acrylic block with green ink and spraying it with water.
I'm sharing this with

Fabulous Jane, you used a technique for the background I'd forgotten all about :) And the Allium plus foliage is so striking too.

This is fab Jane, love the olive green and black combo. I love alliums as well, I've put my pot in the wild flower meadow to die back as the leaves look so sad but as you say the stems are stunning. :)
Lovely - fab colour too
