OK y'all, I was "surfing" a few days ago and came across this card that made me want that digital poinsettia image.............so I went looking for it and found it here and purchased it!!! I then proceeded to make me a print and cut file of it in black and white so that I could print it on vellum, lay clear embossing powder on it, heat set it and then color with my Tim Holtz Markers (for my lighter color I used "Spun Sugar" and for my darker, I used "Worn Lipstick") and my Clear "Wink of Stella Brush Tip Marker". I liked the poinsettia so much that I decided to use it on a Christmas card for my sister-in-law. This card does not open...I used an easel that I cut with my Sizzix eClips as my SIL likes to place cards on display in her built-in bookcase by her fireplace. I sure hope she likes it!!! Here are a couple of photos.
Here is a close-up.
For the "glitter stripes", I once again used the Silhouette "Double-sided Adhesive Sheets". I'm thinking about making another card just like this one for my other sister-in-law, but make the poinsettia red and use gold accents instead of silver . If I do that I will post some more photos. Thanks for stopping by and hurry back!!!

ReplyDeleteI started to follow you today and I love your files that you so generously share. I just got a Cameo and have done only a few things but I love it. I will be taking some time soon to visit a lot of your posts.

That is funny. The proof that I wasn't a robot had the numbers 1715 in it and I guess my fingers were very quick and I said send and it did but with the numbers behind my name.
