I created this for Bebop's Place yesterday and I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Brighten someone's day with this lovely thank you card which features a spectacular cactus flowered dahlia in shades of salmon, orange, gold and pale yellow. Far in the background are more dahlias and an apple tree full of red fruit. The text can be customized to suit your needs.
I think this note card by Bonadrag is just exquisite! A very simple photo of a dewdropped fresh rose.
This lovely mug by folkrockartist shows beautiful roses blooming from her original painting!
Welcome to Bebop's Place
Beauty has been defined as "The quality that gives pleasure to the mind or senses and is associated with such properties as harmony of form or color, excellence of artistry, truthfulness, and originality." Since our responses are totally subjective, I can only speak to what moves me.
I want to share the beauty! I have created a variety of floral products for my Zazzle stores, Bebop's Place and Bebop's Weddings, using my original photographs and designs. I am also constantly amazed at the gorgeous floral products available from the rest of the Zazzle community. I am hoping others will enjoy this blog and even be moved to purchase some of these lovely items for gifts or just for the pleasure of having such beauty around.

This lovely poster available at Bebop's Place features a young woman sitting and dreaming on the dock at the edge of a large pond. Autumn is in the air. The water is surrounded with trees in gorgeous fall foliage colors of yellow, green, red, orange and gold. The blue sky has fluffy white clouds and all this is reflected in the water. The trunk of a large pine tree defines the left side. The brilliant sunshine is reflected in her red hair.
Isn't this gorgeous? I really love this Greek Sundial Fractal Ornament by Fractured Life.
This delicate and artistic mousepad by PR Prints features a macro-focus photograph of small white flowers bursting forth from a small twig, still in the process of opening its leaves to the spring sunshine.

I created this calendar for Bebop's Place from photos of the lovely little creatures I see all summer. My garden is a world of light, color and movement. The flowers and vegetables shine with beauty...and the little creatures amaze me in their infinite variations of shape, form and action. I have tried to capture these lovely little beings with my photography and have compiled the best for this 2011 calendar. I hope you will join me in the marvelous land of the giant swallowtail, hoverfly, tiger swallowtail, damselfly, cranefly, least skipper butterfly, grasshopper, Aphrodite fritillary butterfly, polyphemus moth, honeybee, ruby meadowhawk dragonfly and bush katydid nymph.
Here is a lovely poster by sfcount. She says, "Digitally altered from my original painting of a cherry blossom branch, I've converted the image to shades of gray with just a touch of pink on the blooms. To the print, I've added a poem I wrote".
This Apache Blessing poster by The Shy Muse really moved me. Both design and words are lovely. Our interconnectedness with the beauty of Mother Nature is beautifully acknowledged in encouraging and caring words. Appropriate for many occasions--weddings, retirement, graduations, moving, anniversaries...any kind of turning point in life that garners well wishes.

I live at the edge of a small pond and spend lots of time in all seasons seeking its beauty. I compiled this calendar for Bebop's Place with some of my favorite photos of the pond.
Enjoy the many facets and moods of a pond in upstate New York. This 2011 calendar will take you through the seasons of the year with landscapes and details of the pond's flora and fauna. Photographic styles range from realism to abstraction.
I saw this exquisite poster yesterday in Pariseau's Market and just fell in love with it! Frost crystals are growing along the edge of Boston Ivy leaves on a cold November morning.
This beautiful floral mousepad by morris27 features a digital painting of red and blue flowers.

It's the last day of September today and raining cats and dogs. There is a flash flood watch in effect till late tonight. So I am staying inside making tomato sauce. I have a huge pot cooking on the stove.
I was out in the rain, which has its own beauty, and saw that even more dahlias are opening which brought to mind this binder I made for Bebop's Place. Customize the text on this brilliantly colored binder to suit your needs (or delete the text for a simple black spine). A profusion of dahlias spill across the front and back in shades of gold, yellow, red, pink, blush, cream and white. Petals seem to glow in the sunshine.
What a great California Poppy postcard bySKHDesigns. Send this brilliant splash of orange off to a friend today. The California Poppy is brilliant enough to brighten anyone's day and a note from you will make it even better!
This brilliantly colored postage stamp by Carnival of Colour features the beautiful morning glory in full bloom.

It is sunny and pleasantly warm today. My dahlias are finally looking good (after being stressed by the unusually hot, dry summer) and frost warnings are up for Sunday night! I took this photo of a bouquet of 5 different dahlias. I think it came out nicely as a dramatic pattern in autumn colors of deep red, orange and gold on a black background arranged to create an almost abstract design. The poster is available from Bebops.
I think this is a gorgeous mousepad by CheyBaby Designs. A plethora of pansies cover the area with their flowering glory.
What a lovely design by Kayatiyu! A mass of chamomiles creates a pleasing floral design on cheerful Keds garden shoes. An attractive, fun design, perfect for garden parties or outdoor adventures. Available on other shoe styles including mens and kids. From a watercolor sketch titled “Chamomiles”, © Sandy Long.
