CREATIVITY LIVES HERE: Uniko Pure Florals Poinsettia Revisited Blog Hop!

Sunday, October 11, 2015

It's a great day to stop by because it's the Uniko October 2015 Design Team Blog Hop (and giveaway)!!

So, this month we are taking a look back at a previously released product, dusting it off and giving it some love! Here is an image of the whole stamp set, Pure Florals: Poinsettia.

I gold embossed the Poinsettia, the sentiment, and the small dots on the base panel. The poinsettia was embossed on a piece of watercolor paper and then colored in using distress inks and water! I absolutely loved coloring in this beautiful poinsettia! The sentiment is cut out using a Top Dog Dies die, and the striped paper is vellum with pretty gold stripes.

GIVEAWAY ALERT!! Simply comment on each blog along the hop for your chance to win the featured set or an eGift Certificate code to the same value if you already own it.

Red gold and white - it just doesn't get more Christmasy than that.

Can you believe that I don't have any poinsettia images in my collection? Crazy! Your showcase of Bev's beautiful poinsettia is stunning; love the depth/shading created with the watercolour and the whispers of gold add such a special touch...
