Poinsettia

I started making this card over a week ago and it has taken a while to finish!

I have used a poinsettia paper in the background.  The image is from Beccy's Place and I printed it several times and cut out the various layers to create some dimension.  The sentiment is an acrylic stamp that came with the magazine Cardmaking In Easy Steps.  I used dies from Spellbinder - rectangle and Labels.  I added some faux stitching to the image and sentiment.  I also added three red pearls.

  1. I love the layered poinsettia Suze, it's a great flower for Christmas. I like the way you added the faux stitching around the borders too. Great job!
    Cheers,
