Happy Saturday! This week’s blog hop theme is “Christmas Flowers”! So many pretty flowers for Christmas…of course, Poinsettias being one of them! I love the red ones, but white is my next favorite!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Soft Sea Foam cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded to form base card.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Shimmer White paper was sponged with Frost White Shimmer Paint, then added to the base when dry.
- The leaves from the Poinsettia Dies were cut from Soft Sea Foam cardstock. The Poinsettia petals from Very Vanilla cardstock and adhered together.
- The stems were cut from Whisper White and Wink of Stella added for some sparkle.
- The Beaded Pearls embellishment was added to the center.
- Merry Christmas was stamped with Memento Black Ink on a 3/4 x 4 piece of Soft Sea Foam cardstock, then tucked under the flower.

Oh I feaked when I saw this poinsettia card and immediately made it! Lucky I had all supplies on hand! Brsutiful thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Cheryl! One of my favorite cards!!!
I love the Poinsettia but my dies are not the same leaves as the ones you used. What dies did you use for the leaves? Thank you for everything you post. I love them.
That is a card posted in 2010 and I used the old Poinsettia Petals Bundle (not the current Pretty Poinsettia bundle).
