Poinsettia Greetings for CAS Watercolour Card Challenge

Hi.  It's time for another CAS Watercolour Card Challenge

Here's my card.

Here's this month's challenge.

We had so much fun celebrating our 1st birthday last month.

Thanks so much to all of you who helped us celebrate!

I used a NBUS stamp to stamp and emboss this sweet flower.

I stamped this little poinsettia with white pigment ink and heat embossed.

I used my Zigs and an Aqua Painter to color.

I used a piece of Glimmer paper too.

It goes along with out CAS Mix Up Challenge.
I used stamping, heat embossing, watercolour and glitter paper
.

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Beautifully watercoloured poinsettia, Bonnie! I love the softness when heat embossed in white. The glimmer frame adds lots of sparkle. xx

I love your beautifully coloured poinsettia Bonnie. The nicest flower for a Christmas card. Nice touch to emboss in white making that flower really stand out. Lovely bling and glitter and that lovely sentiment stamp is a winner. Thanks so much for inviting me to be your Guest this month. I am honoured.

Beautiful card, Bonnie. I like the smaller poinsettia stamp embossed in white and the touch of glitter mat -- attractive combo and as always, great water coloring.
