Good Morning! Today I’m sharing a Christmas card made with the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals bundle that I made during my Facebook Live video tutorial yesterday afternoon. This is hands down the best poinsettia bundle ever! You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.
Here is the Facebook Live video showing how I made the card:
I also posted the video to my YouTube Channel and you can view it here if you prefer.
I started by cutting three sets of petal clusters and the embossing inserts from Real Red card stock using the Poinsettia Dies that are part of the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals bundle. I also cut one each of the leaf dies with the embossing inserts from Garden Green card stock and a berry sprig from Silver Foil. I embossed a panel of Whisper White with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder and adhered it to a Whisper White panel. I popped the panel on the front of a Thick Whisper White card base using dimensionals.
I cut out the fancy label frame from vellum using the Ornate Layers Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals photopolymer stamp set in Real Red ink on a strip of Whisper White and cut it out with the stitched label from the Ornate Layers Dies. I adhered the label to the vellum frame with Stampin’ Seal and then adhered it to the card front.
I sponged the center and edges of each of the flower petals with Real Red ink and I sponged the edges of the leaves with Garden green ink. I gently curled the flower petals under with my bone folder and adhered the layers together with glue dots. I brushed each petal with the Wink of Stella glitter brush and adhered one of the beautiful new beaded pearls to the center. I adhered the flower to the card front with glue dots. Then I adhered the leaves and silver sprigs and a polka dot tulle bow.
I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals stamp set in Real Red ink on a Whisper White panel. I stamped the poinsettia in the lower corner, also in Real Red ink and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.
Layered die cut poinsettias make the prettiest Christmas cards. But they can also be used for holiday tags, ornaments, garlands, package decorations and small bouquets. And since the petals come in clusters, they are easy for children to work with in holiday craft projects! So the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals bundle is a definite must have when the catalog opens on Tuesday, Aug 4!
