White Poinsettia





Hello Paper Crafters.  I am still working on completing my Christmas cards.  I am working with the Joyous Christmas release from Elizabeth Craft Designs.

Today I decided to use a piece of the gorgeous Joyous Christmas design paper from this collection and use a piece of the cardstock that included a lot of design.   I had fun creating dimensional pieces to go over some of the design in the cardstock.

 Using Elizabeth Craft Design White Soft Finish Cardstock, the poinsettia was created using the Florals 29 die set. A hint of blue was added to the center of the poinsettia to go along with a blue and gold theme.  Gold dimensional elements were added in the center.  The leaves were also die cut using this cardstock and colored using three shades of green alcohol markers.  

Using the Holly Greenery die set, the branch die was used to die cut three berry branches.  White small Styrofoam balls were colored using Indigo Alcohol Ink.  A fine tip black pen was used to press down on the top of each berry.  (The berries were glued to the small circles on the die cut berry branch.)

The Holly Greenery die set was also used to die cut the pine branches.  They were die cut using green cardstock and cut into smaller pieces to glue under the berry branches.

The Joyous Christmas Stamp Set was used for the sentiment.  It was gold embossed on ivory cardstock and die cut using an oval die.  A slightly larger oval die was used to die cut a blue oval.  The sentiment was attached using dimensional dots.  Gold flat backed elements were used to complete the card.

This was a fun card to create using the Joyous Christmas Patterned Cardstock for a beautiful background.

Have you started creating your Christmas cards so you aren't rushed during the holidays?
