When Azalea Flowers Bloom

Text: April 26 and 27 we had District Conference. On Saturday we got the sister missionaries to meet us a few blocks from the church (near where we got off the bus) and took some pictures by the azaleas. Not long after these pictures were taken, the bushes were ripped out to make room for widening the road.

 

Background Paper: Thai Unryu from The Paper Web, kinwashi from Daniel Smith

Pens: Micron black (01)

Scissors: Fiskars majestic

Punches: corner rounder, Family Treasures corner slot punch, teardrop corner punch

I copied the white flowers from a stencil book in the library.

I tore the edges of the white kinwashi by running a wet paintbrush along the paper and then tearing.

 

I got the title for this one from a famous short story called "When Buckwheat Flowers Bloom." I read it in a Korean literature class at BYU.

Azaleas are everywhere in the spring.
