I found a purple poinsettia and decided to try that for my inspiration. The poinsettias were cut from white and colored with distress oxide inks. The berries were hot foiled and colored with the help of the stencil set and oxide inks. I cut a couple of pine sprigs and added them along with some vellum berries branches. The layout is one I saw Anne Fiene use on a recent card she posted. The various stripes were attached and the card base splattered with silver metallic watercolor and villanious potion ink, before adding the flowers and berries. The hot foiled sentiment was popped up with foam tape. Here's my inspiration.

This is truly a stunning creation with the purple poinsettia and all your fine details. You sure have the foiling down to a science. It always looks professionally done by you. Fav'd TFS

Purples and greens make a lovely combination and you did it SO well with your floral spray, Sue. Love the vellum tucked in here and there. A beautiful card.
