For my first card, I die cut the poinsettia pieces a few times from vellum. I heat embossed the sentiment from the Hand Lettered Holiday stamp set and added my poinsettia. My card base is slightly narrower than a regular A2 size card so that my poinsettia leaves can hang off but still have the card fit in a regular envelope.
For my second card, I die cut the same poinsettia die from deep red card stock. I embossed the sentiment, also from the same Hand Lettered Holiday stamp set, and decided to also heat emboss the edges of my card panel. To do this, I just ran the edges of the panel against my Versamark ink pad and then embossed.
Thanks so much for visiting today. Crafty hugs!

Both cards are gorgeous, Alanna!! Oh my goodness, that red is the perfect red for this project and I adore the touch of gold on the second. Beautiful font for the sentiments. Fabulous cards. Hugs!
They care both beautiful, but Alanna, the vellum flower just takes my breath away!
This is a jaw-dropping design, Alanna, and your two beautiful poinsettias did just that to me!! Hugs, Darnell
These are simply breath taking....Love them both!
I second the others: breath-taken away poinsettias! Love both!
