Bird of Paradise Desktop Wallpaper

Life has become terribly hectic for me at the moment, but I took a break from the stress to make this desktop using the gorgeous background and frame from Chris' great little kit.
You can pick it up from her page HERE.
The lovely Bird of Paradise [Seleucidis melanoleuca] illustration is a painting done by Ellis Rowan the great botanical painter after one of her trips to New Guinea in about 1917.
I've added a background brush of Wisteria sinensis which I made from an image on the Australian National Botanic Gardens website.
