I changed the poinsettia to roses and stamped my background instead of embossing it. I painted the background using Brushos over the white heat embossed stamped roses. Instead of die cutting a flower, I fussy cut out one of he roses.
I also added a sentiment.
thanks for looking,

Very striking! Love the bright red and white, with just a smidgen of green. I like how you raised up the strip across. A beauty in the gallery most definitely. TFS
Karen, you have such a way of creating these gorgeous watercolor flowers. I love the white embossed roses with all the gorgeous color. This reminds me of Julie Ebersole's Bed of Roses cover die.
