Pearlescent inks highlight the beautiful details of the new Simple Poinsettia Frame and a holiday message from the Mistletoe Swag Clear Stamps Set. Add gold gem stickers - and that's it! Hello, Jean Okimoto here...hope you're enjoying your weekend. We're excited about our 2019 Holiday Collection and can't wait to share more designs and ideas with you!
Cut Simple Poinsettia Frame from watercolor paper - it makes the beautiful details stand out. Cut the four additional petals. Cut an extra petal from the framed poinsettia - it's the one on the right.
Brilliance inks are great for coloring diecuts - they're easy to blend, then dry quickly. I've used Rocket Red Gold and a bit of Sunflower Yellow for the petals. Pearlescent Thyme colors the leaves and stem. Use a Post-it to mask the edges where the leaves and stem are attached to the frame.
Attach the large extra petal from the frame die first, then add the other petals. Use a small amount of glue at the bottom of the petals and crease them gently before assembling the poinsettia.
Stamp the greeting with Rocket Red Gold.
Attach everything to a top-folded A-2 card of smooth white cardstock.
Add yellow gem stickers.
Add texture and dimension to your projects with the detailed designs from our 2019 Holiday Collection. Find your new favorites there - and be inspired by the holiday idea books filled with Dave Brethauer's beautiful cards.
Thanks for visiting...see you again tomorrow!
