Christmas Florals for The Flower Challenge

Hello friends.  Sadly, this is the last challenge for The Flower Challenge.  I have so enjoyed this challenge and will definitely miss it. They want us to Use Christmas Florals.  Of course, I thought of poinsettias as I have quite a few to choose from but settled on this oldie from Stampin Up - Poinsettia Petals.

I die cut the 3 layers of the poinsettia from white and shaped the petals with my fingers, glued the 3 layers together and added  the center cut from gold foil.   The leaves from the set was cut from some green from my stash and the sprigs from the gold foil.  I also cut the sentiment from my new Papertrey Ink Holiday Tag: Elegant Ornaments set from the gold foil (can't wait to play with the ornaments in this set).  I layered the gold sentiment on a white layer and then glued to a Real Red panel embossed with Spellbinders Nordic Noel EF (also new).  I swiped white ink over the embossing before gluing the elements on.  I added this panel to a scalloped black mat cut with MFT Blueprints 20 die, and then glued to a white card base.  I am really loving this card and may make a couple more since I am not quite done with my Christmas cards this year.

I will also add this to Darnell's NBUS as this is the first time using the EF and the sentiment die.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping
