Cactus Monday - Lily Inspired

Hello Cacuteers, I was in front of the tv most of the day yesterday so I got a cactus ready for today. I did this with the trusty ole markers.  They don't blend well but this is what was at hand when I had my inspiration for the bloom.  This summer I saw a beautiful lily with dots on it.  I figure somewhere in the world there is a cactus with a dotted bloom.  Happy Cactus Monday.  For more cactus go to Teri's Painted Daisies.

I like it, it's happy and colorful!

For markers that blend you have to try Copic Markers. Wow, they're amazing!! And they come in every possible color and leave no lines.

You are right; there must be a lily cactus somewhere! It's so beautiful it must be.

Oh so creative, and I do love the spots on it. I saw quite a few lilies when I was in Milwaukee in June, but I never made the cactus-lily connection.
