Stampin’ Up! Poinsetta Petals Merry Christmas
This is my first Christmas card of the season. Maybe if I make one a day, I won’t have to rush when October rolls around.
The card I am creating today uses the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set and the Poinsettia Dies. A very simple card to create, but sometimes the most simple take the most time for me.
Inspiration for this challenge comes from the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.
Cherry Cobbler card stock is the card base as well as the mat for the DSP. I cut all the paper and card stock then started adhering together. A gold panel from the Gold & Rose Gold 6″ x 6″ Metallic Specialty Paper is applied over the Cherry Cobbler card stock base. The greeting label is cropped using a die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. The greeting is one of the many Merry Christmas stamps I have saved over the years, so you can use any Merry Christmas stamp of your choice if you so desire to create this card and I’m hoping you will.
A panel of Tidings of Christmas DSP is matted on Cherry Cobbler card stock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue then adhered over the gold panel.
The small poinsettia die from the Poinsettia Dies is used to crop the three poinsettias, another die is used to crop the berries also. Two are cropped from Cherry Cobbler card stock, one from Very Vanilla card stock. The Very Vanilla one is brushed with Cherry Cobbler ink using a Blending Brush. They are arranged on the DSP panel using Mini Glue Dots and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Elegant Faceted Gems are popped in the middle of each poinsettia. Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels are also popped around the card front.
The retired sentiment is stamped in Soft Succulent on a panel of Very Vanilla that has been cropped using a die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. A strip of the DSP used on the card front is adhered to the bottom of the panel.
A medium Very Vanilla envelope gets a panel of the same DSP used on the card front applied to the envelope flap.
If you would like to create this card all the products used and the card cuts are at the end of this post.
