Flower Power


Hi everyone. Today I thought I would bring you a very simple card using the lovely….and very large Poinsettia stamp from Stamp  Addicts. As you can see it takes up a lot of space on a 4 x 4 inch card so it really is a good focal point.

Now I am no horticulturalist, but I know that poinsettias don't come in blue…….but a little bit of poetic licence is allowed in  craft, right?  :-)

For this card I have kept is super simple and I have coloured and decoupaged the two elements - flowers and leaves and applied them to some nice circle nestie die cuts.

And that's really all I can say on this one, other than adding some links to some lovely challenges that I would like to enter.
