I had seen a few really gorgeous cards in the last couple of weeks made with the new Poinsettia stamp by Flourish, and it made me think of this stamp I had, so I drug it out and played with it a bit yesterday. I stamped it twice in versamark on watercolor paper and then gold embossed them. I watercolored them with real red and bravo burgandy and some riding hood red, then cut and layered. I added some stickles in the center. I really like how it came out, even tho I can't really get a good photograph of it. The card is big, 5 /14 inch square.

This is beautiful!! I love how you did the ribbon part saying Merry Christmas. It looks beautiful how you have gold brads that match the gold in your pointsettia. Very very pretty!!

This is one of the most beautiful Christmas cards I have seen on SCS. Something about the color the dp and the ribbon together. Stunning is a great word for this card!
