Happy Christmas

Hello bloggers!  I cut the Poinsettia Cover Plate with a piece of antique gold card on top of a piece of white card.  I used the white copy to colour the image.  I glued the gold die cut on top of the coloured copy.  I cut the die a second time out of black card.  I used the fall away pieces to paper piece the background into the die.  I added a black mat to it then cut a larger piece of white card and added it to the top of the card.  I cut the Happy Christmas sentiment out of antique gold card and added it to a black shadow backing piece.  I added the sentiment below the cover plate with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white, antique gold and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/4" in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. What an eye-catching card today. I love poinsettias anyway but the way you have coloured these is really stunning. Thanks for sharing.

Good Morning Sue and all that visit this morning. A lovely card today Sue ... But as I said before I am not keen on the black background. I would make this card ... But with a lighter backing. This is only my opinion and no offence is intended.. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
