DAY 12 -CAMOUFLAGE - CREATE SOMETHING THAT DISAPPEARS INTO ITS' BACKGROUND

Having arrived in the south of france for a well needed break at a friends villa,I don't have bmy endless boxes of bits with me, so I'm now very short of items to use as inspiration for the next 2 1/2 weeks
Camouflage and leaf inspired? My first thought was combat gear, but with no fabric, and no fabric paints here (and the minor fact that I can't draw also) I decided i needed to look closer to home.
After a wander round the garden I found the same leaves as there was a picture of in my Day 2 Blog



So, I pick 3 leaves, slice them in half lengthways and attempt to plait them together to see what I end up with (nothing much actually!) But, when you fold it back upon itself it sort of looked like a flower:

So, I put a pin in it, and stuck the camouflage leaf flower intot he vase of flowers on the lounge table:


Time to make: 15 minutes
