Welcome to My Time to Craft Christmas Challenge 111!
The theme for this challenge is to use flowers.
I love non-traditional colours for Christmas so I chose blue poinsettias.
The poinsettia image was die cut three times from silver foil paper and three times from white cardstock. Once I had removed all the pieces and arranged them on sticky tape, I inked the white pieces with shades of blue, making the poinsettias darker in the centre and lighter at the edges. The background was die cut and adhered to a piece of light grey cardstock. I also die cut a stitched rectangle frame. The silver flower outlines were adhered and I glued in all the inked pieces and finally adhered the frame on top. This was a very time consuming task - the die cutting alone took quite a while. A hot foiled sentiment was placed at the bottom right and I added some iridescent gems around the card.
