For this card, I stamped the poinsettia twice onto Soft Sky with Versamark, heat embossed them in gold EP and cut them out (one big, one just the center). I did the same for the leaves on Pistachio Pudding cardstock. Then I sponged the edges of all of them with Soft Sky or Pistachio Pudding ink, pierced a hole in the center of both flowers, and added the brad. I curled the petals backward with my bone folder. Stamped the long dot stamp from Gorgeous Grunge across the top of the vanilla panel, added the sentiment, and popped the flower up on dimensionals. Finally, I wiggled the leaves under the flower and glued them down directly to the vanilla layer. I realize that entering it into the WT454 challenge is a bit of a stretch, but I figured since I sponged ink over a heat embossed image, it might count. Hope you enjoy!

I spotted this last night just as I was shutting the laptop down. DH spotted it too and was very impressed ;-). I love the soft colours with the gold, and all the dimension.
