This is my last week of being a guest designer on the color challenge. Thanks for having me, sure enjoyed this month. Mary gave us colors that stretched my imagination. Our local greenhouse has poinsettias in various natural colors, and also imaginary colors they spray on with added glitter. My card is the imaginary color! Using the slap stick stamp inked and spritzed numerous layers. The dots were created with gold embossing powder. Outlined the frame around the flower using gold thread and a needle. Framed with some thick gold recycled paper. For the sentiment the die would not cut through, so just used the embossing it did on the gold paper. TFL

This card is just magnificent in every sense! I love the gold thread running through it, the recycled frame and the unintentionly embossed sentiment works perfectly! I am thinking I will save a lot of my Christmas cards this year for recycling!!!

Linda, this is an amazing beauty of a card! I am so impressed with the gold thread stitching that frames your gorgeous poinsettia. What a great design idea, in addition to all the other gold elements. Thank you so much for being a guest designer for the CC this month, it was wonderful to have you as part of the team!
