Celebrate

The background color scheme of purple and blue was supposed to be peaceful and serene.  However it turned out to be on the lurid side . . .


 
So I turned to my favorite secret weapon:  dragonfly paper!  It’s an Asian innovation made (I think) from rayon.  It’s sheer, wispy, and contains occasional silky strands of shimmering beauty.  It also transforms lurid to calm and quiet.  I taped it to the underside of the frame and then set that over the background.  Problem solved!
