Poinsettia

Tonights card is for two challenges.  The first challenge is on CAS-ual Fridays CFC 169, Off the Edge and the other is The Flower Challenge #6, Anything Goes.


I stamped the Papertrey Ink Poinsettia twice, coloured them with copics and then fussy cut them.  The sentiment is a Simon Says Stamp die, Merry Christmas.  Which was then embosed in Hero Arts gold embossing powder.  Kaiser Craft rhinestones were used for the centre of the poinsettia and to give the flower a little more glamour I used Wink of Stella on the petals.

Goodness this is my third Christmas card for the year.  This is quite odd because I usually don't make my Christmas cards until the very last minute.  I am not complaining because if I can maintain the momentum I should have my Christmas cards done well before Christmas this year.  But then again I am not holding my breath.

  2. Hi Skye,
    The sentiment shines and stands out beautifully here. I thought it was made out of a gold wire. The poinsettia looks really nice with all the layers and fussy cutting.

    So nice to see you back to blogging,
