Enjoy The Magic Of The Season

Good Sunday morning all!  I started by cutting the foliage panel from the Poinsettia Panel set into white card around the edge.  I used a piece of white card that was covered with a sticky adhesive sheet and attached the four die cut panels to it.  I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed adhesive.  I cut a small red frame using the Round Corner Squares.  I added mounting foam to the back of the frame then attached a white backing piece.  I used the sentiment from the Blustery Frame and cut it in black then glued it inside the frame.  From the Poinsettia Trio set, I made three Poinsettias out of red card, adding green leaves as accents.  I attached them around the frame in opposite corners.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8 1/4"  x  8 1/4" in size.

Happy Sunday Sue.
What a pretty delicate background it's so pretty. The whole design makes me smile. The best thing is that the beautiful glitterbitz will never shed unlike other cheap glitters etc, I'm sure I'm not the only one that gets sick to death of wiping up cheap nasty glitter off the mantle etc lol the polish silk glitters and the glitterbitz are the nicest ever and never follow you from room to room. What a beautiful week of inspiration we've been given thank you xxx

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, such a very pretty card today, the background looks amazing, I am sure in real life it looks far more glittery, the dies used are absolutely perfect for this sample, and these can be batch made for all your cards this year too. Thank you for sharing.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs June smith xxx

A beautiful card with your lovely Poinsettias, I love your background & the fact that your glitterblitz doesn't shed is magical to me as I don't like glitter but I do use this. Yvonne xx

Stunning card! xx

Ann Topp said...

Good Morning Sue. What a lovely card ... I love it and the background is amazing. But I am now wondering/confused ... I won the Poinsettia Panel in one of the Christmas Launches ... But I have to say that the one I have does not look like the one on the sample. I will have to go and check later today. Thankyou Sue.
Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
Please stay safe and well 🙏

A beautiful card. I had to look twice at the background, to start with I thought it was a new embossing folder! Your dies are just so versatile. Thank you Sue.

Hi Sue, another beautiful card with fabulous poinsettias. Love the sparkly background also. So much great inspiration, thank you.

Ann Topp - I believe Sue has used the holly panel from the Poinsettia Floral Panels set.
