CC503 Joyful Christmas

Photo Details

Poster: beesmom

I wanted to try some embossing paste again, so first I stamped the poinsettia on the main panel so I knew where to stamp the leaves (masking a bit also). Then I laid a stencil over my top panel and spread the paste across portions of the stencil and let dry. I stamped and embossed the flower on another piece of cs, colored w/ copics, and fussy cut that. Matted my main panel with gold foil cs, then popped up the flower with dimensionals - it looks so cool with that added dimension but is hard to see in the photo. Embossed the sentiment in gold and popped up that also. Added gold stickles to the center of the flower. Love how this turned out! Linking to CC503 (our colors this week),

Beautiful ! I love that flower you have created and the bg is just wonderful. The gold foil really does make it festive. The smooth clean tag is really nice against the textured bg. Love every bit of this beauty!

Fabulous texture and that beautiful poinsettia popping off that white bg makes this outstanding in the gallery today.
