Merry Christmas Poinsettia's

Merry Christmas Poinsettia's

Here is my card for this weeks Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.

Freshly Made Sketches

I started with a Basic Black C/S base, 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2". Using Multi-purpose liquid glue, attach a  2" x 5 1/4' piece of Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper to a  4" x 5 1/4" piece of Whisper White C/S. Emboss this panel using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. This technique embeds the DSP into the Whisper White layer for a really nice effect. Attach this panel to the Basic Black card base. Using the Poinsettia Dies, die cut 6 Poinsettias with the detailed centres. Using Bumblebee C/S, die cut 2 Sprigs, cut apart. Attach 2 Poinsettias together with a Dimensional, add to card front with another Dimensional. Glue the Sprigs in behind. Using a Dark Daffodil Stampin' Blend, colour 3 Rhinestones, add to flower centres. Stamp Merry Christmas using Memento Black Ink onto a scrap of Whisper White C/S. Flag end and add to card front using Dimensionals. The sentiment I used was from the Little Treats Stamp Set. I only wanted to stamp the "Merry Christmas" so I placed a Post-It-Note over top of the Ho Ho Ho, inked it up with Memento Black, remove the Post-It then stamped. 

Hope you enjoyed todays card! 

Happy Stamping and Creating!
