Poinsettia Magic

Hey everyone.  I've been crafting away over here watching the rain fall and waiting for the "blizzard" that is supposed to be coming our way.  We will see what happens but I can sit here, look outside and watch my tree twinkle.

Today I'm sharing a card using some cute new products that I've gotten.  I love using dies and seem to never use them enough.  This card uses mostly dies with a little stamping added in. I created this with the Shapeabilities Cinch And Go Poinsettia Etched Dies.

I die cut the poinsettia pieces. I then used my bone folder to "curl" up the leaves and then took a dauber in silver ink and inked up the edges.  I love this technique as it gives dimension without using and pop up dots.  

I did use a stamp cut die to create the back drop and popped it up to give just a bit more dimension.  This is one of the cards I'm going to have on my table as a sample coming up in a few weeks.
