Silver Poinsettia


I wanted to share one more Christmas card! I made a few of these to send to my special friends!
I loosely followed this week's sketch


My poinsettia was too large to put the sentiment beside it, so I had to position it a little lower than the sketch called for. This gorgeous poinsettia is from Stampin Up. I just love it! I stamped it on vellum card stock with Versamark ink. Then heat embossed with SU silver embossing powder! I took a blade and cut out the center leaves and lifted them up. I used some silver Liquid Pearls for the stamens.
Love how it turned out! 
All of the stamp and papers are from Stampin Up! The tinsel is Tim Holtz.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

Merry Christmas!!!
