Hi everyone!
I can't believe how quickly Christmas is approaching! I have been busy finishing up my shopping and hope to put up our Christmas tree this weekend. The outside of our home is decorated and looking quite festive.
I found a little time to stamp and was glad to ink up the Bells & Boughs set.
I started by stamping the poinsettias and greens in StazOn Black on a piece of Shimmery White paper, which was cut from a Spellbinders Labels Nine #6 die. Using Prismacolor pencils and gamsol I colored the image. I stamped A Merry Christmas at the bottom in VersaMark and embossed it with gold embossing powder and a heat gun. The image was popped from a piece of Deck the Halls Designer Paper, which was mounted to a piece of Cherry Cobbler.
I added the Offray 1/4" metallic gold ribbon and some Kaiser rhinestones in wine. Everything was mounted to a Soiree petal shimmer card
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Poinsettias are my mum's fave flowers this time of year!
At first glane I thought you had made a very vintage card. Love the poinsettias. The background and text look very vintage. Another great card.
