I die cut a Sentimentally Yours Double Debossed Stately Oval die from watercolour card.  I also die cut John Next Door Poinsettia's using Sizzix texture card.  

I trimmed an old patterned paper to 142mm square and adhered onto a 148mm square card.  I layered the poinsettia die cuts four deep and adhered then put to one side.

I inked up parts of the Penny Black Scarlet Majesty stamp with orange Karin Brush Markers Pro and stamped onto the die cut oval.   Once I was happy I moved onto red Karin Brush Markers Pro colour and stamped.  I then added green to the leaves and stem to finish.  

I dried the stamped oval with my heat tool then added a watercolour wash to the background.  Once again I dried the oval before stamping the sentiment with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink.   I adhered the oval and the poinsettia's onto my card then finished with Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops.   Back soon x
