Thank you sweetheart. I thought you'd appreciate those, especially with the warm mauve tones! The original photo has Mercedes against a concrete banner and wall, grey and very cold.

I'm really glad I saved all the steps of the image along the way from the original photograph, it's interesting to look back and see the progression (which was not necessarily a linear one.) I have an uncropped version without the text or the icons and it's super-pretty as well, you can see the entire rose.

All the blue and the pink and the black.

I actually made dark red and peacock green version of the same banner to try to coordinate with the icons (esp the Category Holiday set), and they ended up looking not-so-great partly because the contrast of the different colors was lost.
