How much detail?

Braid sections, ribbon folds, leaf veins and blossom centers make many smaller spaces around the open face. About the labels.

Try this palette: Blossom braid

Keep the face a single soft shade, then alternate two related colors through the braid and ribbon bows.

A small coloring tip

Colored pencils suit the braid sections, leaf veins and flower centers; use light pressure on the broad face.

Give each ribbon bow a color that appears elsewhere among the blossoms.
