So Inspired

Well, I hope you've had fun this week seeing the New Releases at Flourishes - which are now available.  I was so inspired by this months sets, besides the fact that they are beautiful, I think it's the longing for spring isn't it?

So for this release I was looking up what kind of colors are available for Hyacinths and came across this lovely photo:

Isn't it stunning?  I really love the combination of the creamy yellow hyacinths against the deep blue ones, and just look at the color variation in the blue ones?  Ahhhh the beauty of creation!

So here's where I went with this inspiration:

Combining the two colors of hyacinths together in a little bouquet with some pretty emphasis on the bows in the design and the ribbon variety along the bottom  :)  Coloring is done with Copic Markers.  

Since it is unusual for me to use so much white (yet it seemed right for the color palette), I added some embossing and pretty piercing to accent the design, as well as the little strip of designer paper punched with the Martha Stewart Hydrangea punch.    Here's a pic of the Copics I used.  

Thanks for dropping by everyone, hopefully you are inspired by something beautiful today as well!  Check out these DT member Blogs to see what else they have to show you from this fantastic release!
