Icons: Flowers and Spring

This is kind of killing two birds with one stone, since the First Day of Spring was only yesterday, and I'm getting to share some of my [livejournal.com profile] floral_icontest entries. Subjects range from poppies to snowdrops, to bees to clovers, with a couple things inbetween. ;-)

As ever, my icons are not bases, please credit/comment if taking, and enjoy!

Teasers:
1 2 3



Please, if you take anything, be so kind as to take note of the numbers above the icon(s) you're saving, since I am always experimenting with my styles and I would like to know what people like best. (This helps me so I can make more!) The numbers are above the icons. ;-)

Congratulations on your prizes! Not only are these lovely--they're just in time for both Spring and Easter, y'know, the whole idea of life blooming once again...

Thank you! I always feel like I'm being vain.

You don't have to steal them, silly!

Not a problem! I want my icon suppliers to feel very loved and appreciated! :0)

I'm using beautiful 003 with credit - it was a tough decision between it, 001, and 002! My sister [Unknown site tag] is using 001.
