Good morning! I've been having fun creating some Christmas cards for the Spring into Christmas Linky Party on the BYSHC blog this week, and I wanted to play with some new poinsettia dies today. I pulled out these Garden Variety Poinsettia dies from Taylored Expressions and cut out the petals, leaves, and stamen. I covered the stamen with some distress Stickles and set it aside to dry. Meanwhile, I brushed some kraft ink over the beautiful Christmas Greenery stencil from A Colorful Life Designs (use code HollyFan10 to save) onto a kraft cardstock panel.
After I assembled the poinsettia onto the stenciled kraft panel, I stamped the sentiment (Taylored Expressions), temporarily covered it with scratch paper, and splattered the whole thing with white acrylic paint. The final touch was to add some more of the distress Stickles to the panel and let it dry before I glued this to a white card base.
Come join the fun over on the BYSHC blog - just make a Christmas, Hannukah, or wintery card and share it in the Linky Party. We'd love to see what you've created for your holiday card stash!
