Wedding's are a time for Flowers

Original Sketch

Final with colours

After any exam period of just a general intense period of har-working I have this weird thing where for 2 weeks I get a little bit lost, trying to overcome my lack of sleep and adjust to not having to work 24/7. Therefore when I finished my final assessment for my first year at university I got a bit lost; but then my friends came to the rescue!

I was set the task of helping with the process of my friends wedding invitations. She gave me a collection of photos with the flowers - mainly pink, purple and oranges, with some daisies and whispy white flowers - that she liked and told me she wanted the flowers to form a ring around the writing. 

Obviously the writing in the middle isn't the actual text, but so I could get an idea of the circular shape, I looked at wedding invitations to see what was included.

I had a bit of trouble trying to balance out the colours around the whole ring, to make them work well with each other, and even now that I have finished, I still prefer the sketch alone to the colour image. Typical!

I think if I was to change anything - I find the whole flower wreath quite busy and heavy. It's a thick wreath around the lettering, and I would perhaps make it thinner, to hopefully made it less overpowering.
