This is primarily for Susan's (rainy) DTGD challenge, but it's also for Kittie's and Stacy's (Twinshappy).
A2 base. I made two pieces to use - IO Swirl Lace stamped with Versafine Olympia Green, embossed with clear EP and sponged with Antique Linen.
Wrinkle-free distress with Tea Dye, Old Paper and Antique Linen, stamped with Linen in Tea Dye. After assembling it and adding the sentiment from MFT, it still looked a bit flat so I added the swirl from Baroque Motifs, in Tea Dye again.
Edges were sponged heavily with Vintage Photo and embossed with gold EP wherever it would stick, then I added some gold Stickles.
Spellbinders Poinsettia cut from red Bazzill, the leaves cut from some gingham tissue paper. Gold ribbon and gold bling for the centre of the poinsettia.
