Denise is our hostess and has a great site for this week's Inspiration Challenge. I was inspired by this Poinsettia Ruffled Apron. I had just bought the poinsettia stencil and thought it would be perfect to use.

I love this card! I am really into the postage concept...several companies are doing it now. But scary! SO many cute and fun companion stamps/stencils to go with them! I am afraid I would not stop!
I like the white dot border and the snow! And your ink/paper color. Rich looking.

This card is absolutely stunning—the rich reds and layered textures make the poinsettia pop beautifully. The combination of the stencil and postage die adds such a charming, vintage feel. Love how the white paint and gold pearls bring it all together with a festive sparkle.

I tend to shy away from stencils because, I do not like cleaning them... and I love this. It looks like it is a good size the openings to play with and I love that you fancied those blooms with the glitter as well Amy so pretty.

I always love the postage collage stencil and your poinsettias look so gorgeous. Plus, I love the falling snow.

The postage template is wonderful, filled in with these gorgeous poinsettias, Amy.
