Floral filigree
This drawing shows a light beige background filled with three connected shapes. Each shape has a purple border and is packed with bright flowers, green leaves, and red berries. The flowers are mostly pink and yellow, and the leaves vary in size and shape. The design looks like it could be used for embroidery, with careful attention to how the branches twist. The top corners have extra floral decorations, almost like a frame. If you like this kind of detailed floral work, look into filigree next.
