Red Rose Bouquet

This is the 1st project which I had done myself. It consists of 3 red roses and filler flowers like caspia and solidago. I felt that I should buy more filler flowers to add on in future. The bouquet looks a little bald. This is something in should improve on. Practise makes perfect!
