This is for F4A95 to make a projct with winter flowers. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use the poinsettia dies for this challenge. I made this card for my mother-in-law for Christmas. She was here over Thanksgiving and shared with me that she much preferred my pink and white poinsettias cards over the red and white. Three poinsettias on the front of this card is a bit of over kill but I know she will love it. Check out my poinsettia tutorial if you would like to know how I make my flowers and pine sprays. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kitti...-tutorial.html
Paper: White, Pink, Olive

ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING! I'm in a state of trauma as my MS branch punch is failing on me. Won't punch out the center and the spring sounds funny. How can one live without it? I know you can't b/cuz I've never seen anyone do as much with it as you have. And, that poinsettia - YUMMY! It's gorgeous Kitty!
