I very nearly chucked this, as I am not very happy with it, but that happens from time to time. The day started out with a stink bug flying in when I opened the sliding doors - just went south after that! The dies I used are Marianne Designs Poinsettia Set and MB Ribbon Candy - and typical of me, I added some rhinestones and sequins, which I promptly spilled on the floor - lol. Thanks for looking

I know what you mean about things not working out with a card..I had that day yesterday. I do like what you've done here with the sketch..that poinsettia is so pretty and really takes center stage...love the sequins and gems..they always add that little something special.

I am having that kind of day as well. Started right out spilling coffee on my favorite shirt. Looked all over for something...never found it. Discovered I left the freezer door ajar last night. My card wasn't what I wanted either! I love the wavy separation on your card. Looks fine to me!

Lovely Christmas card with pretty colors and DPs. I like your creative thinking in using the beautiful flower in place of the panel. The sequins are like the sparkle of the season.

Yep - I have been having some of those days of late as well. Your card turned out nicely. Yes - those sequins definitely add some "bling" to your card as well as to the floor when you spill them. Keep on smiling.
