Tis the Season

 

There's a terrific new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches this week and I wanted to give it a go. It seemed like the perfect time to use the Waffle Flower poinsettia dies I bought at an afterseason sale. This is their debut and I have to say, they are pretty fabulous!



After a some ink blending, I added them to a pine embossed panel cut with a PPP border die. I layered a little pink under the bottm edge for more interest. A simple sentiment from The Greetery was all it needed.

Thanks so much for stopping by. I'll be back tomorrow with a new Just Us Girls challenge. Have a great weekend!

Your poinsettias are so soft and pretty. The embossed background helps make them pop.
