Red Embossed Poinsettia

It's been a while since I've written a blog post.  My craft shows have been keeping me busy.
This is one of the cards I made for the craft show.





Technique: The poinsettia and leaves were stamped twice with Versa Mark onto Whisper White paper, and then embossed with gold embossing powder.
One flower was entirely cut out and the center of the second flower was cut out. Both leaves were cut out as well.
Using a bone folder, I curled the petals of the flowers under ever so slightly.
Using a stamping dimensional, the middle of the flower was attached to the entire flower creating the 2 dimensionals flower.
The square framelits were used to die cut a white square which was matted with a die cut Real Red square.  The flower was attached to this die cut unit using stampin dimensionals. The leaves were attached to the bottom using tombo glue. Some cherry cobbler dazzling details was applied to the center of the flower.
The base of the card is Real Red layered with gold foil paper embossed with the fancy fan folder.

Stamp: Joyful Christmas
Ink: Versa Mark, SU markers (Real Red, Old Olive)
Papers: Real Red, Gold Foil, Whisper White
Accessories: Gold embossing powder, Fancy Fan Folder, Square framelits, Stampin' dimensionals, Cherry Cobbler dazzling details.
