Poinsettia Panel

 


Hi everyone, have you had a chance to play along with the current challenge at CAS Christmas yet?

Linda is looking for cards with poinsettias, there are loads of wonderful makes by the design team and in the gallery for inspiration so I hope you can join in, there's still plenty of time.

I used the small poinsettia die again and and shaped the leaves and petals. Added a diecut  decorative panel as a background. There's a piece of white shimmer paper behind this, bit hard to see in the pic so here's a closer look. Still a bit hard to see lol!


The sentiment is from a retired Stampin Up set, stamped in versafine clair ink and clear embossed.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Supplies:

Dies: Poppystamps small blooming poinsettia; Annabelle Stamps decorative panel (not sure of the name and now retired); Stampin Up Four the Holidays sentiment, (retired); versafine clair nocturne ink & clear ep; white shimmer paper.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

Such beautiful poinsettias Cathy, and I love the pretty background die cut panel with the shimmer paper behind it and finished with the black stamped sentiment which shows up beautifully. x

I love the crisp and clean look of this card, Cathy! Your tiny poinsettias are so pretty, and shaping the leaves and petals makes them look alive. The lattice die-cut panel is a perfect backdrop for the flowers!

Oh these small poinsettias are so adorable, Cathy. They are highlighted perfectly against your trellis-like die-cut background looks like a trellis.
