I have three cards to share using the same die but different techniques.
I think the Poinsettia has become one of my many favorites!
The Poinsettia comes in two sizes, large and small.
I love the deep veins on the leaves. The Berry Branch was die cut in a matt bronze hw paper.
The Peace die cut was inlaid onto the embossed vellum and Neenah.
For this Poinsettia I have combined both sizes, large and small and die cut them onto watercolor paper. For this technique I've used Ken Olivers Color Burst in Crimson for the leaves. It reminds me of the Jingle Bell Poinsettia. The greenery is a mix of the Berry Branch and a new Pine Sprig Set.
Card inside
The leaves on the Poinsettia were colored with Zig water color brushes. Distress Inks were used on the Berry Branch and Foliage. I love the graceful lines on the Ornament Flourish dies. The set comes with three beautiful ornaments and two gorgeous flourishes.
Thanks for looking and enjoy the hop!
