Inspired by {Beijo's Events}

This week Kia is guest hosting  the Inspiration Challenge and she has pointed our attention to the Beijos that has a blog post about a White Winter Bridal Shower seen here on their blog and I really loved all these photos so much. (My son is recently engaged so, the wedding posts caught my eye) 

 

A closer look at the center this is a little pile of various brands of diecuts. I started out cutting the poinsettias ( Impression Obsession and spellbinders from watercolor paper and then painting them with this shimmery white kuretake gansai watercolor paint. the Penny Black berry branches & spellbinders Fern were cut from some soft seafoam cs and colored with the oxide inks ( iced spruce & cracked pistachio. and then for shimmer I did add some of the off white watercolor paint over the top to them too. the Eucalyptus, verdant & scribble leaves were cut from Vellum. The bitty white blooms with beads on them came from a Package from Hobby lobby. ( some have glitter), The centers of the poinsettias have some Nuvo dragon scale dream drops ( which merged into one big dot while drying) and the Berries on the penny black branches have some nuvo simply white crystal drops on them. Underneath the two largest layers of Poinsettias are some really old Making Memories ( came cut) sheer netting type flower shapes. You can click on the photo to enlarge it and hit your browsers back button to continue reading. The sentiment (Stampin' Up itty bitty Christmas) is up on foam pop dots. I am fairly pleased with this one although I probably should have made one of the floral clusters just a bit bigger.


 The frame is a new one from Crafters Companion called Yuletide Frames ( these are the two largest ones) This was cut from 110# Neenah ( with a metal shim) And this card finished out at 6" square in real life. I just love the colors here and just may do some variations off of this color combo later.
 
This is the specific photo from the blog post that I used to jump start my Inspired by card.
That's about it from me, Thanks for stopping by.
