Good morning all! I thought this card might make a nice one for the Wednesday card giveaway. I hope you think so too. I started by embossing a piece of
coconut white card using the
Snowflake Lattice embossing folder for some background texture. I cut several of the
Classic Poinsettia in red card. I matched the sizes of the dies with the same ones in the
Filigree Poinsettia set and cut them in white, overlaid them and glued them together, then offset them to make two flowers. I glued them in the corner of the card, then added several
Holly Spray sections around them. I added
small 3mm white pearls to the spray as accents. I stamped my
sentiment from the Joy To The World stamp set by Creative Expressions and then cut it out with the
Salzburg die. I ran a bead of dries clear glue around the edge and dusted it with
Iced Snow. Once dry, I added it to the upper corner of the card. I matted my card with a white mat, a thin red mat and a final white mat. On the inside white mat, I added
white Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue dots all the way around the edge to frame it. The finished dimensions are 7" x 9" in size. If you would like to be entered in the drawing for this card, just leave a comment on today's post. The winner will be drawn and announced on Saturday's post. All for now, Sue x

Another beautiful card. Just two colors really set this card apart from so many others. Gorgeous card to make for Christmas.
I would be over the moon knowing this beauty was on it's way to me. I love Poinsettias and these are absolutely stunning. LOVE that the only color is from them. A very classy card that someone is going to be very happy to receive! Fingers tightly crossed! THank you for your generosity!
I LOVE a white on white card, and you do them so well.
There is definitely something about this card - Smart, Classy and beautifully made.
This card is stunning. It is a gift as well as a card. Anyone would be blessed to get it! I am going to buy some of these items.
