This was done jump started by this awesome Christmas Ornament in Denise's gallery, I loved the colors, shape, Textures, theme all of it. So, to make changes I made my scene using mostly stamps, ( I cut out the bloom with scissors) and changed the base to a square card. This square die set was a new addition to the stash and fun thing the biggest die cuts both that frame and the center out of it with one pass so, it was really easy to do this stepped up framing with it. Denise, I hope you like this and enjoy your week! Thanks for this challenge Nancy, & tfl.

Love those fresh colours for Christmas! Your foliage looks fabulous spilling over onto the frame. I have that poinsettia stamp but have never thought of cutting it out. Love the look and will be trying this. Into my favourites your beautiful card goes!

I knew right away your inspiration! Almost used the same one. I may still make a card because of that ornament. Your turned out beautifully! I love that the foliage carries out to the frame. That die is a great on to cut your frame and opening with stitching!

Stacy, this card is stunningly elegant and beautifully serene at the same time. I love the different greens you used and also that dimensional, creamy rich poinsettia.
