Marcella saved her beautiful Joy to the World Bouquet for last.
If you love to color, this one is a dream. Remember, all the new stamp sets are available in digital format, too, and those can be enlarged and cropped to create lots of room for a watercolor brush or a Copic nib. Once again, I'm representing the physical stamp set here. You can see it's quite a nice size, filling up this A2 card beautifully. I cropped just a little bit off the top and one edge.
I colored with Copics and trimmed the edge with plaid and a self-adhesive strip of gold. Scattered some gold sequins and done!
And that wraps up Collection #2 of Marcella's Quiet Christmas release. It was, as our Stacy put it, quite a Christmas release! Visit the Power Poppy Blog for more information and gorgeous samples. I must say, I've really enjoyed working with these stamp sets and sharing them with you. Thank you so much for your time!

Beautiful Leslie, your colours are so warm for winter. I love the pomegranate and berries in the bouquet - stunning :)
Gorgeous colored Christmas bouquet, Leslie. My mouth is watering..your pomegranate and cranberries look so real. Love all the Winter flowers, ivy and pine boughs. Beautiful details so beautifully colors. Your plaid border and narrow gold strip along with your watercolored shaded background really adds depth to your floral arrangement. TFS your Christmas card that will be treasured. Thank you for all your gorgeous cards for the new release. A labor of love. Love and Hugs...my friend. Nancy

Sigh... how incredibly gorgeous to place a portion of the digital off the main page to draw attention to that amazing poinsettia. Leslie, you always manage to use a tiny bit of detail to bring out the flavor of your masterpieces. In this case, the plaid with gold strip really brings out the festiveness of the occasion! So warm and cozy! I'm completely smitten! hugs, de
