Couldn't make up my mind about which card to submit for the challenge, so I just went with both cards! The Flourishes challenge this month was to make a card without buttons or bows. This card probably fits a little better since it doesn't have a bow on it...not even a stamped one!
The poinsetta and leaves were stamped with a Flourishes stamp and colored with Copics. I used the snowflake embossing folder for the background and popped it up off the card base. I edged the card base with a gold leafing pen. The center of the poinsetta I covered with some small gold beads. I adhered them with crystal lacquer. I added a few random bling to the snowflakes. The poinsetta is also pop dotted for dimension.
