Welcome to the month of August, time to turn those calendar pages.
This is all occasion greeting card in acrylic (5 1/2"h x 4 1/4"w) for Paint Party Friday. I was looking for ideas of what to paint this week. I settled on some kind of greeting card. There were a couple of birthday cards on Pinterest with daisies on them that I liked. But my daisy didn't look right, so I decided to make it a chrysanthemum! I'm quite pleased with the way it evolved into something of my own.

Lovely combination of colours!

What a wonderful painting! So very pretty.
I love this! One of my favorites! It's beautiful!
Looks good Christine - the layering go the petals certainly gives it that Mums' look.
Chrysanthemums bloom in May down here and are often associated with Mothers Day ( also in May) so this would be a great card for that occasion.

this is quite charming and full of summer's spirit.
Oh this is so beautiful! And I think it's a wonderful experience to see when something unexpected develops from what we think is an error. I love this chrysanthemum!
Oh, I love this one, Christine. Very pretty!
