Poinsettias

It is my turn this week to set the theme for the girls in the Christmas Card Club and I have chosen Poinsettias on our cards so without further ado here are the two that I have made.

First card
Rather a CAS style for me on this one. Card base was made from white card stock cut to size. I did use my Scor-pal to make four lines around the edges but they are not showing up too clearly.  The sentiment is by Creative Expressions which I cut 3 times (2 in white and 1 in red). I tried out some new Joy Crafts Glue - Sheets  for the first time and though the packet said quick and clean I wasn't very impressed with them. Spent more time picking the excess bits of sticky glue off afterwards. (You do need to use a pick tool and tweezers and not touch the glue sheet with your fingers. Ask me how I know that.)  The flower die is  'Blooming Poinsettia' by Poppy Stamps. I simply cut several in the different sizes and layered up with 3 leaves. Liberally applied loads of silver glitter glue to both the sentiment and the flower.

Second Card.
I already had the base card made from a  previous project showing a tutorial on how to make an Aperture card so I just added the flower, gems and silver edging.

 Poinsettia die is by Creative Dies. Layered up and used a silver brad to secure together.  The Holly die cut is from Making cards 2018.  I used red glitter glue on the flowers this time. Picture below shows the card closed so you can see it without the glare from the acetate.

Can't wait to see what the other girls have made.

Fluff sent me a photo of Kellogg to show you. He looks very happy on his cushion in the garage!!

Zzzzzzzzzzzz.
