A Card a Day in December--Card #2

I have to say my favorite color combo this holiday season has been the pink, red and green color blend. I love how Stampin’ Up! has given us so many great tones to use that build and support each other.

I started with a Flirty Flamingo card base and added a layer of Blushing Bride card stock over top. I embossed this with the Tasteful Textile 3D folder.

Merry Christmas is from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set and I stamped it in Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron, Just Jade and Shaded Spruce. I just LOVE how festive these colors look. I didn’t even mind hand cutting them. BUT….

Fun tip: If you have the Classic Label punch you can insert this phrase inside and then snip off the ends!

It was something I remembered AFTER I cut these out! hahaha!

A traditional Real Red poinsettia was the perfect addition to this card. I have definitely gotten my money’s worth by using the Poinsettia Petals Bundle on project after project! I love how the dies give you the option of cutting around a stamped image or using them to cut and emboss the poinsettia shape and foliage.

On this card I cut and embossed the flower and stamped some of the leaves to cut. I added in a slightly different leaf from the Sweetest Borders dies.

Some Red Rhinestones added the perfect amount of bling to this card in the center of the poinsettia.
