Red Poinsettia

Hi my crafty friends, another Christmas card for ya today, keeping it RED!

Items Used:

• Basic White Card 8" x 8"
• Creative Expressions Foundation Card - Burgundy
• White Card
• Creative Expressions Un-Mounted stamps -  Silhouette Poinsettia 
• Spellbinders M-Bossibilities Folder - Framed Petite Lables  Design A
• Spellbinders Shapeabilities -Layered Poinsettia
• Versamark Ink Pad
• Imports Ltd Flatbeads - Burgundy Product Code FL396
• Tim Holtz Distress ink - Fired Brick
• Heat tool

I first got my  Basic White Card 8" x 8", then with some Creative Expressions Foundation Card - Burgundy,
using my  Versamark Ink Pad and Creative Expressions Un-Mounted stamps -  Silhouette Poinsettia, (the small flourish and the single poinsettia) I stamped onto the card, heating it to dry to leave a watermark effect. I matted this onto my base card. With some White Card I cut to size leaving a boarder round showing the watermark detail, I stamped it up using the Creative Expressions Un-Mounted stamps -  Silhouette Poinsettia  around the edge and 'Tis the Season' stamp as the main focal point with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Fired Brick then ran it through the bottom of Spellbinders M-Bossibilities Folder - Framed Petite Lables  Design A to give some texture.
With more White card I die cut some Spellbinders Shapeabilities -Layered Poinsettia using the two largest dies and the leaves and inked through the die with Tim Holtz Distress ink - Fired Brick. I placed these together as seen and attached them to the bottom right corner of my card. In each of the four corners and the center of the Poinsettia I placed a Imports Ltd Flatbeads - Burgundy Product Code FL396 to finish the card off.

This was a very simple card to make but an effective one.

Thank you for looking, Jacquie xxx
