I'm back with another card to inspire you to join us for this month's Christmas Kickstart - Positively Poinsettias.
We're asking you to use your poinsettias to make cards for this challenge. This card is an entirely different style from my first one.
The dies are from Tim Holtz, called Festive Bouquet. Everything was cut from watercolor paper and colored with Distress Inks. I thought I'd give them a rustic look with black splatter. Not sure that was a wise choice but I'm going with it. The images are arranged on a panel embossed with Altenew's Poinsettia Cluster, popping up some of the leaves with foam tape. The sentiment is another one from Pinkfresh Studio's Basic Banners Christmas, heat embossed in black.
If you haven't joined us yet there is still time. Don't miss this chance to get a kickstart on your Christmas cards. I'd love to see your poinsettias.

Gorgeous poinsettias, Bobby! I love how you've put them over the embossing! Great inspiration for Christmas Kickstart!
I agree with everyone else -- I think you made a fabulous card placing those poinsettias over the embossed poinsettia background. Well done, Bobby!
Beautiful poinsettia Bobby. Looks so amazing over the dry embossed poinsettia in the background. xx
