F4A438 = Happy Birthday, Yadi - I chose the option of using red and white
WT696 = Simplicity Day - a CAS card
After die cutting the poinsettia layers with watercolour paper, I watercoloured them with my Gansai Tambi paints, keeping it darker in the centre and fading out to the petal tips. I used my ball stylus to give the petals some dimension and layered them. I added it to a red card base gluing down the centre and popping up some of the petals with tiny bits of foam tape. I die cut a stick frame to glue around it. Finished of with a simple heat embossed sentiment on the bottom, and a tiny bit of stickles and some gold gemstones in the poinsettia's centre.

Wow, is this ever striking! That is a beautiful water colored poinsettia and I love the glittery center. The stick frame die cut is very unique and adds a great element to this card.

You've colored that poinsettia beautifully and the stick frame is awesome.
