My design uses line in the purple snap dragons going up the middle, bringing the eye down the design. It is a triangle shaped design. The softness of the roses are balanced by the edges of the wire in the design. I used a monochromatic color scheme (various shades of pink).

For the principles of design harmony is seen through the soft pink and soft flowers creating harmony together. My design is visually balanced because the bigger flowers are at the bottom of the design and my smaller flowers are higher. My design is proportionate to the container it was made in.

Elements: Form is a circle.

texture in the pointy mums and soft roses.

Color is the one where you use the colors next to each other.

Principles: Harmony is seen in the spring colors and the spring basket.

I think my balance is a little off with the mini carnations being too tall, giving it the look that it might fall over. I think the scale is good.
