Season's Greetings
Hello there my crafty friends! Today's card is the result of a bit of leftover from an earlier card. I started by stamping a snowflake all over a piece of cobalt blue card. I embossed it with clear embossing powder. I used the Double Stitched Ovals and cut a large oval out of it (I used the aperture piece on another card). Next I used the Cut Corner Rectangles and cut a thin white frame. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame to raise it. I embossed a piece of white card with the Falling Snow embossing folder. I used it as a backdrop and added my frame to it. I recessed the centre piece from the frame down into it. Next, I added the stamped oval piece in the middle of the frame. I cut the Season's Bold die in white and added it across the oval. I stamped the word greetings and cut it out and added it below the bold Season's die. I made three poinsettias out of vellum using the Classic Poinsettia die. I seated them on the lower portion of the frame. The card was completed with white and cobalt blue mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, a beautiful card and as always I love your vellum poinsettias. I have been busy stamping, die cutting and using embossing folders (all of them your products of course) ready for a batch making session whilst catching up with Jamie's shows which were interesting as usual.
Happy Birthday Donna, hope you have/had a good day.
