Peaceful Poinsettia

I have another Peaceful Poinsettia card for you.  I am loving this bundle.  This card has lots and lots of detail.  I used the Detailed Poinsettia framelits on Whisper White and then filled in the open areas with different colors.  For the red berries, I cut the framelit again using Merry Merlot cardstock, added glue and stuck them into the openings using my Take You Pick Tool.

Are You a Poinsettia Fan??

Poinsettia’s are definitely part of Christmas – you see them every where.  Stampin’ Up! has a stamp set in the Holiday Catalog with poinsettia images and thinlits to coordinate with the stamps.  Something about pages 22 & 23 kept jumping out at me.  The bundle has some interesting elements but the card on page 23 finally made me buy this bundle.  I loved the simplicity of this card.  I cased this card for my Stamp & Go Club this week.

Shaded Spruce provided my card base with another layer 1/4″ smaller for the cutouts.  You use two of the thinlit dies to cute out this beautiful artwork.  I attached it to the card base with dimensionals and then spritzed it with Champage Shimmer Paint and rubbing alcohol in a spritzer to give it a fun shimmery look.  It was finished off with some Silver Metallic Pearls.

Happy Birthday Tina

Today is my best friend’s birthday!!!
Who is my best friend, besides my husband?
My sister, Tina Rappe!!!

Wish her a very Happy Birthday today — she deserves the very best.

She’ll receive this card Tuesday when I see her, but she does
see my blog, so she’ll get a sneak peek today.
I used the new Happiness Surrounds stamp set, it’s part of the Snowflake Showcase,
which is available only during the month of November.
It’s like Stampin’ Up! picked it just for Tina (haha).
