I'm late to the party! It's my life motto! A big hearty Canadian...sorry! I'm also late discovering Susan Tierney Cockburn and her beautiful floral creations and spellbinders dies! I've been watching her videos and have ordered some dies. So in light of what I have and the inspiration of this gift bag and the black velvet bag in the shot beside it, https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca...6b84e27a1c5956
I loved the bright wispy greens, blues and red foliage. The red paper points reminded me of poinsettia points, and the eucalyptus in there reminded me of THAT paper so I built on top of that. I had a birch frame and cut two of the trees out of it and mounted them on dark grey paper and sponged a bit of detail to create my birch sticks. I'm so thrilled with the result as both time and mojo have been at a minimum. Thanks, Kia for hosting for us.

Absolutely GORGEOUS!! Your dimesnional holiday bouquet in the black container is magnificent. Love the bg you chose which has the look of lunaria when it is still green. The gingham ribbon adds that extra "punch". Outstanding!

A long-lasting beautiful bouquet. This is such a lovely way to send flowers to a friend. I know many of my friends who have had chemo find the scents of some flowers to make them nauseated. This is such a beautiful alternative and like I mentioned above it will be a keepsake forever.
