Hi Everyone!!! This card is for today's Featured Stamper - Monika Jakubowska aka Monia, and I'm so glad to have been able to see her amazing work. Every single creation was an inspiration. Still somehow I was able to select one - here is the link: { Monika's Gorgeous Christmas z-fold card}
I kept Monika's general sketch but did not go the z-fold route. I used similar colors, kept the Christmas theme, used stars in place of sequins and added a sentiment. Monika - I hope I did justice to your breathtaking creation - thank you for the inspiration!!
To make this card I started by stamping the Midnight Clear background stamp onto Vellum paper, then adhering that to a white card stock panel. Next I die-cut the Doily, Poinsettias, Fancy Foliage, and Star dies. I added a bit of yellow Pan Pastels, then flocking powder and glitter. Last step was making the sentiment tag and mounting everything together.

Audrey, this beautiful style of Monia's is so very close to your own beautiful style and detail, so it is no surprise that you have created a beauty that would live and be right at home in her gallery Love the colour, the gorgeous vellum work and yup, there they are, those stunning poinsettias again. Love how you work them up and embellish around them.
