i quite like eclectic (WPlus9)

Have you seen the photo for the blog hop at Cloud9?  This table setup could happen at my house - well, minus the elegant dishes - but the colorful, eclectic mix is all me.


What caught my eye?  Poppy, milky white and wonderful deep blue with some ikat and some gold.  So this is what i did.  Thought that little round "bloom" image from Folk Art Florals had something ikat-y about it...


Homemade poppy embellie.  Gold embossed sentiment, washi and a couple sequins.  And the colors.  Thanks for coming by.



Supplies I quite like your smile:
Paper: cardbase Craft UK
Stamps: WPlus9
Ink : Distress Inks, Versamark
Tools: heat gun to melt flower edges
Other: fabric, beads, thread, washi, sequins
