Steps


  1. Go to the website. This is for making the flower part of your gift. You can look at the various flowers and maybe choose a few or just look at what you can do.
  2. Choose your base color to start your flower. You will be drawing your flower in layers and degrees of transparency, so keep that in mind when choosing the colors.
  3. Choose a petal style. In this screenshot, you can see that the petal selected is shaded in gold or yellow.
  4. Click someone in your screen and start moving the cursor around. Your color and petal style selections will appear in a kaleidoscope type image.
  5. Click on another petals style and maybe change the colors. The colors lay down in an additive manner. Which means pink layered on top of blue will have some purple parts.
  6. Continue this until you have the flower looking like you want it to.
  7. Save your flower. Once you have the flower looking like you want it, save it.
  8. Start another flower. If you would like to start over, click on the button that says 'Start Over'. You can also take a flower that someone else has made and add to it.
  9. Click on Send a Garden To a Friend. It will be in the center of another screen. It will take you to a screen broke up into various segments.
  10. In the blue box on the left, are the different flowers that different people have created and saved. Select up to 7 of those. If you want more of a certain type of flower than another one, you can choose it twice.
  11. You can choose whether or not to make a vine with flowers or a tree with flowers.
  12. Send your gift. Put in a message and the info required to email it to your loved one.
