Hello friends! Today's inspiration challenges is taken from the most awesome Pinterest board! i had to go through once just to pin things! Then I came back to this wreath.
I loved the gold and white combo. I had fun with this one! I used ODBD's Vintage Pattern Mini 1 and 2, stamping both on ivory card and embossing with pearl ep. I cut the bottom with the ODBD Antique Labels and Border die. I also took a piece of brushed gold and just embossed the border on the bottom. For my ornament, I stamped the ODBD Vintage Ornament and heat embossed with gold ep, cut with the ODBD Custom Circles Ornament die, then I matted it with a brushed gold mat. I heat embossed the single poinsettia flower from the Poinsettia Wreath set on to water color paper, water colored it and cut it with the Poinsettia Wreath Die. I also cut 2 pine boughs from brushed gold using the ODBD Fancy Foliage Die. I popped the ornament up on foam dimensionals, and added the sentiment from the Poinsettia Wreath set and die cut that with the Recipe Card and Tags die. I simply added some ribbon and pearls for an elegant card that looks much more complicated than it really is.
Thanks for taking a peek! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!! My hubby has a "honey do" list for the weekend so I will pop back in later to leave you all some love!

Wowzers! Pure gorgeousness, Grace! Everything is so luxurious- the pearl embossing (what a nice touch), the gold ribbon, gold embossing, oh, and those wonderful die cuts from the foliage dies. I have to admit though, that what caught my eye was your wonderful and unique pearl treatment. The large pearls look like they are dangling off of the scallops. Wonderful!
