Christmas 12 . . .

I have a Christmas to share today and here it is . . .




I wish to enter these challenges . . .

Allsorts Challenge #779 More than one fold: I created an easel fold card  (1/3) 

Cut It Up Challenge #303 Add a Sentiment (2/3) 

Peace on Earth Christmas Challenge #63 Always Anything Goes Christmas(1/3)

Penny Black Saturday Challenge PBSC Anything Goes optional Pastels

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge  Use die cuts (2/5) 

Sparkles Christmas Challenge #160 Add a ribbon or twine: I added white ribbon to the ledge of my easel (1/3)

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #647 Anything Goes (2/5)


I had fun creating this Christmas card, the colours are not my usual choice for a Poinsettia.   I think that using a black card base, black die cut sentiment, softly coloured designer paper and mainly pale die cuts means that this fluorescent pink Poinsettia works.

I inked the Penny Black stamp with my Karin Brush Markers Pro and lightly sprayed with water before stamping.  I edged the Sentimentally Yours die cut with Picked Raspberry Distress ink.  I layered up John Next Door Poinsettias, used snippets of DP for the ledge around which I attached white satin ribbon.  

Back soon, with some more bright Christmas cards lol!
