Instructions:

 

1.     On a scrap of Basic White cardstock, stamp the small and the large poinsettia from Merriest Moments with Cherry Cobbler ink. Die cut out with the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder dies.

2.     Die cut a label from the Peaceful Place DSP (white with small gray diamonds pattern) using one of the large labels (embossed edge) from the Tasteful Labels dies.

3.     On the die cut label, stamp some foliage with the following ink colours:

a.     Branch with leaves: Smoky Slate ink

b.    Large pine sprig: Soft Succulent ink (stamped off once, & stamped as if in the background)

c.     Small pine sprig: Soft Succulent ink

4.     Glue the two poinsettias one on top of the other, offsetting the petals, with Stampin’ Seal.

5.     Tie a large bow with the Simply Elegant Trim (silver). Attach it to the back of the poinsettia with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Put the Stampin’ Dimensionals around the knot so your poinsettia won’t be wobbly on the card! Stick it on the die cut label in the middle of the foliage you stamped.

6.     Put three Metallic Pearls (silver) in the middle of the poinsettia.

7.     Using the Season’s Greetings stamp and Soft Succulent ink, randomly stamp “Season’s Greetings” on the Soft Succulent cardstock to create a background.  Stamp twice before inking the stamp again so you will have some light and some dark images.

8.     With Stampin’ Seal, stick the Soft Succent cardstock on the Cherry Cobbler cardstock. Then stick the Cherry Cobbler cardstock on the Smoky Slate card base.

9.     Using Stampin’ Dimensionals, stick the die cut label in the middle of the Soft Succulent cardstock layer.
