Greetings, Friends!
A little disclaimer: this one is definitely using artistic license so enter with caution -- or an open mind, either one, you decide!
I started by die cutting the poinsettia die and keeping it all together with Press 'n Seal. I then watered colored several times with Zigs and a waterbrush to add a bit of depth. I then carefully removed the "frame" of the die and generously pounced VersaMark all about, then dipped it in silver embossing powder. After heat embossing, I placed the frame back around the flower, flipped it over using the PnS, and glued the underside before placing onto the die cut, pierced square. The square was popped up with foam and the sentiment stamped. Easy-peasy! I do love the turquoise and silver together.

Wow! I believe I LOVE a turquoise poinsettia, especially with the silver edges! An awesome card, my friend!
Ooh Tiffany blue, gorgeous! The silver and turquoise are the perfect pair especially on a Christmas card. Love the stitched panel, adds subtle interest without overshadowing the poinsettia x
The silver embossing looks amazing and I love the blue poinsettia flower. A stunner of a card TK x.

So pretty. Love the color combo, it's unexpected but goes well together. The silver embossing makes it elegant. - So what is Press n Seal?
