The seasonal plant I brought to this week's teapot Tuesday party is the poinsettia. I stamped my wreath and sentiment in black, then embossed in gold. I chose to colour the poinsettia leaves in wine/burgundy tones instead of bright reds. I personally prefer this colour of poinsettia though they are often harder to get. I think the wine/burgundy gives a deeper, richer feel. Enjoy!

Gorgeous wreath and I absolutely agree with you about the rich deeper colors for the poinsettia. I prefer them too and they look magnificent on this card. Beautiful CAS design. Beautiful coloring. Beautiful card.
