Festive Poinsettia

I made a couple of Christmas cards with Altenew's gorgeous poinsettia stamp, Festive Poinsettia. I coloured them with my Copics before fussy cutting them out. For the background in the first card, I masked a rectangle and ink blended it with Distress Oxide ink in Iced Spruce and splattered some gold and brown ink on it. I then dry embossed it with a Penny Black embossing folder called Melody before adhering the poinsettia on it. The sentiment is die cut and says 'Christmas Greetings' in Finnish. I embellished the card with some half pearls.


I'm entering this to:

* CAS on Friday: Challenge #323 - Christmas

* Beautiful Blossoms Challenge: Anything Floral Goes




The second card has more of a vintage feel to it. I used a piece of light brown cardstock and stamped it with Pinkfresh Studio's Dainty Plaid background stamp before ink blending some brown Distress Oxide ink on the edges. The frame is also by Pinkfresh Studio and it's called Ornate Oval Frame. I splattered the poinsettia and the background with some white acrylic ink, adhered everything in place, adhered the die cut sentiment in place (the same as in the first card) and embellished the card with some gems.
