Wild Dragonfly Designs: Christmas Spirit

Hi everyone…I am very late posting Octobers Christmas challenge from Flourishes but better late than never! I was so inspired by the gorgeous samples the design team shared that I had to try my own.

For October the challenge is to use 1 stamp 2 ways. I have chosen to use the set Poinsettia and Boxwood. First I stamped the poinsettia twice on a piece of patterned paper from Daisy D’s…have no idea how long I’ve had that! I cut several center leaves from the second image and popped them up over the first image which I cut out completely. The center was created with Liquid Pearls and clear micro beads. I used a piece of gold cardstock for my mat which I added a simple border with my Scor-Pal. After I added the flower I embellished it with flat backed pearls.

For my second card I used the poinsettia as a background image. I stamped it several times with Versa Magic Red Magic on kraft cardstock. I outlined each flower with my Stardust pen and added yellow centers with a colored pencil. This gorgeous gingham ribbon creates a beautiful and rustic foundation for my simple sentiment.

Please use the Keyword FLLCNOEL6 if you upload to Splitcoast. You have until October 31th 5 pm EST to submit your cards and Flourishes will announce the winner with next month’s challenge! Check out the post here for all of the details!
