Joy To The World

 Hi bloggers!  I started today's card by selecting a piece of white card and adding a strip of antique gold card to both the edges.  Using the Ornate Adornment Border die, I cut the border in white and glued it to the gold strips on the sides of the card.  I cut the Poinsettia Banner in white, then added the banner strip in white.  I cut the side swirls in gold and glued them on top of the white ones.  I cut two poinsettias in red and added gold centres to them and attached them to the white die cut.  I used a green marker to colour the greenery.  I stamped the banner with the Joy To The World sentiment.  I attached the Poinsettia Banner in the centre of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2"  x  9"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

A very pretty card today. I must order this die as it was my favourite on launch. This years cards that I’m batch making are using your poinsettia ribbon die. An older die but also very pretty. Thank you Sue.

A lovely traditional card. I love poinsettias at Christmas. I have quite a few SW poinsettia dies from over the years and a new one just arrived last week (stained glass).
I hope everyone is doing well this Monday,

Hi Sue, I loved this beautiful card when you closed the launch with it. I am pleased to say that I now possess this die and having had the usual trial run I am ready to make some lovely cards and I am glad that you have posted the make-up of this sample. Thank you.
