Hi Chris here and today I would like to share with you this embossed poinsettia card. To create this card I started by creating the card base with cardstock.  I then added the green cardstock and punched the border for some visual interest. I then added the Holly Days paper and the cut away strip from the Poinsettia paper as an accent. I then stamped the Poinsettia with Versamark and added white embossing powder. I filled in the center of the poinsettia with red Stickles. While that was drying I stamped and embossed my greeting. Here is a close up. To finish off the card I added some hand cut holly leaves.  Hope you are inspired to get stamping!
