The prompt for CAS Christmas is Poinsettia and it was a difficult decision to choose one from the many I have until I accidentally ran across a forgotten one from Waffle Flower and that became the star of my card.
Just to be different, I went with C9 Dragonfruit for my poinsettia, inking it up with Altenew Razzleberry for depth. The background is one I got from Darnell ages ago. I loved the embossed panel but the folder was discontinued so she sent me some. I used quite a few in the beginning but I'm glad I had a few left so I could use one on this card to make it clean and simple. The sentiment is from Pinkfresh Studio and although it looks a different color on screen it's actually the same paper. Side note: In die cutting the poinsettia I lost the little circle die for the center. A silver embellishment from PPP did the trick.

I can totally see why that poinsettia became the star of your card. It's beautiful!
Bobby, that's the most unusual poinsettia and I just love it. the little cutouts really add a lot of interest to the leaves. Your color choice against that bright white was masterful. Gorgeous CAS card.
