Poinsettia for Rudolph Days and Jingle Belles

Hello friends.

Today I have another Christmas card for the stash.


This card was made with pieces from my Christmas UFO box.

The poinsettia was cut from a Simon Says Stamp Die and assembled
long ago.  I don't remember how I colored it or got the shiny finish on it.
Most of the Some times I just can't remember stuff!

I used two kinds of texture on the white pieces but they don't want to 
show themselves in the picture.  The smaller white piece has gold
embossing around the edges.

I'm joining in at Rudolph Days where Maureen hosts an
Anything Christmas Goes challenge every month from the
25th to the end of the month.

I'm also joining in at the Jingle Belles Challenge
where they've given us a sketch to use this time.




Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

    Love this card design, Bonnie. The slight gold along the edge, the fabulous merry die and the stack Christmas stamp all combine to make one fab card!

    Thanks for taking part in the April Rudolph Days Challenge.

    That poinsettia is colored so soft and gorgeous. A pretty design. I love the gold glitter sentiment. I would leave the "Most of the time" in if I were posting this.

    That's a lovely little poinsettia, Bonnie. I don't always remember what is used for a card either but I guess that's irrelevant unless you want to duplicate it. ;) I'm getting behind in my Christmas cards. I'm going to go take a look at these challenges.

    such a beautiful christmas card, bonnie! the poinsettia is lovely however you made it. i often think of putting my die cut sentiments on an angle but i usually chicken out; must stay in my comfort zone. :) thank you for playing along with the rudolph days challenge.
