Hello there my crafty friends! I started this red and white treat by cutting the
Ornate Oval Frame die twice. I cut them in half, then made a triple white frame using the
Double Stitched Squares. I glued the cut halves of the
Ornate Oval to the inside of the triple frame. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame to raise it, then attached it over another piece of white card. I cut the
Happy Holly Days sentiment in black and glued it to the centre of the frame. Using the
Poinsettia Stampcuts, I inked and cut three flowers. I coloured them with
Distress Markers (Festive Berries, Pine Needles and Fossilized Amber). I attached them in opposite corners and added
Holly Accent Sprays cut from
Khaki green card. I used a soft white pencil to add highlights to the flowers. The card was completed with white and ruby red mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue hope our American friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday.
The next big celebration is not that far away and your sample today is gorgeous Sue your stampcut poinsettia stands out beautifully, this would definitely take pride of place throughout December but then every card you make would take a special place, I'd have to do a daily rotation lol.
Love to all, stay and keep well xxx

Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card & I love how you have made the frame. Your Poinsettias really makes this card pop. Yvonne xx
What a beautiful post - love the frame, but the card as a whole is perfect...
Morning Sue. What a lovely way to make a relatively plain frame more ornate. I wish I would have thought of that before! Love the card and the pretty poinsettias too.

Good Morning Sue. Ohhhh what a beauty. I have been looking for something traditional to send to our friends in Holland ... And here it is ... I love it for me and I want it for them. I don't have the same oval that you have used but I do have one that will do the job. Also the Poinsettias will have to be substituted ... But that's not a problem either. And I can't wait to start it. It's a beautiful card. Again you have come to my rescue. And always on cue. Thankyou Sue.
Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

Hi Sue, a beautiful card and I love the way you have layered the frame and added the cut ovals, it makes me think I am looking onto a stage and waiting for the play to start. The poinsettias are as gorgeous as ever.
