Poinsettia in Pink Card -Paper Tole

Hello friends, I confess that I love pink poinsettias. I had one in a water globe 

once and it glowed as if it was lit up by Christmas magic. :) 

What's your favorite Christmas decoration?

For this card I stamped the Quietfire Design Poinsettia three times with die ink. 

Once in green for my base panel and then twice in pink for the top layers. 

I coloured all layers with Bic markers and fussy cut the pink pieces, 

then shaped them before setting aside. 

Next I stamped the Merry Christmas before attaching the panel to my glimmer mat. 

Which was then adhered to the card base layer.

The final step was to attach the flower pieces with pop dots.

Thanks for the visit!

Paper Tole Dogwoods Birthday Card

Hello!

Have you heard, paper tole is making a come back how sweet is this!

Normally you will have 5 layers for a paper tole project I have only used 3 layers here 

as this card is for a cousin overseas. 

 For my image I used Hero Arts - Dogwood Stamp and

Stampin Up! sentiment from Simply Sketched set.

 I stamped it 3 times the middle is my card base. 

Then watercoloured the flowers in Peach and 

leaves in Chartreuse using Heidi Swap Color Shine.

I have to tell you that I'm real happy that Distress colours 

do not wash out when painted over. :)

Rough cut out of flowers.

Cut the centres and leaf from this sheet.

Here the flowers, centres and leaf have been trimmed and
shaped. All edges coloured with Antique Linen Distress Marker
and ready for attaching with pop dots
 to base shown.
