But now, let's dive into my second project, which highlight the Pressed Poinsettias stamp.
I decided to create a custom patterned paper using some of the stamps included in the Pressed Poinsettias stamp. I started from a 5,5"x8" Kraft cardstock, I stamped the solid flowers using the MFT Red Hot ink, the darker details with MFT Amarena Cherry, the branches with Kraft and the white berries with a white pigment ink. Since I wasn't happy with that white result, I used a Posca Pen to get a "whiter" look. When I was happy with everything, I die cut the same poinsettias with the Winter Poinsettias Die-namics from some masking paper and I masked them all. I splattered some acrilic white, some red ink and some Gold Gansai Tambi Starry Watercolor. I let everything aside to dry. Then I gold heat embossed the centre of all the flowers.
I die cut the patterned paper using the largest A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX dies, and with the left piece, I die cut the medium Surprise Stitched Tag Die-namics. I matted both with Red Hot cardstock and with a larger Smooth White piece (for the tag I used the largest die of the same pack).
To complete both the card and the coordinating tag, I stamped and white heat embossed two of the sentiments included in the Christmas Wishes stamp, which I die cut with coordinating dies too. I LOVE those sentiments coordinating dies!! And here's the finished card.
