Tis The Season
Hello crafters! I started today's card by cutting about ren to twelve poinsettias out of red glittered card using the Stylish Poinsettia die set. I used a piece of Press 'N Seal which is a slightly sticky clear roll of film. I arranged the poinsettia onto the sheet facing downward. I ran it through my die cutting machine and cut a circular aperture in the middle. I added small pieces of mounting foam onto the flowers, then added it to a piece of white card by flipping the piece over onto the card. Once the flowers were stuck to the card, I removed the Press 'N Seal piece from them. I cut a smaller circle out of white card using the Double Stitched Circles. I added it to the middle of the aperture with mounting foam. I cut the Tis The Season in red and glued it to the circle. I cut green leaves to accent the poinsettia and added mounting foam to them and added them in place. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 3/4" in size.
All for now, Sue x

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a fantastic sample, I really like the way you have used the 'Press & Seal" to make the Poinsettia , I have never heard of that so will investigate it. The close ups look amazing.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue. Such a splendid card today, love the poinsettias made out of the red glitter card and I am sure it would work with other flowers all year round.

Hi Sue, a really lovely card, you can't go wrong with poinsettias. I was not aware of Press 'N Seal but will, like others, investigate.
