I'm still making Christmas cards so this was an easy challenge!
I stamped and heat embossed the poinsettia in white and watercoloured it with my Zigs, being a bit radical (for me) in my choice of colours - I'd usually use red and green, not pink and lime, but I have a friend who loves hot colours so this is for her.!
I stamped the sentiment in grey and heat embossed it, and then put a bit of the same grey ink on my craft sheet, watered it down, and did a light splatter on the background.
I embellished with sequins that matched the colours in the poinsettia. Then bordered it with a pierced frame for a final touch.

Love the bright, intense colors you used on your Christmas card with a poinsettia using the watercolor resist. The few sparkles and spatters add to the design.
