As soon as I saw this card by Cindy Lawrence (aka: One Happy Stamper), I knew I wanted this stamp set! Here's Cindy's card: LSC189 Soft Poinsettia by One Happy Stamper at Splitcoaststampers
Isn't it absolutely gorgeous?? I've seen many other beautiful cards with this set since then, but Cindy was the original enabler!! lol
Again, because of the acetate (or maybe because I'm just a lousy photographer), I couldn't get a decent picture!
I stamped the image twice in Versamark and embossed with Gold EP. Watercolored with inks, cut out both images and just used the center flower petals with a dimentional to the top of the first flower to add some depth. I also dry embossed the back of each petal and leaf for even more dimention. Next time I will NOT use gold stickles for the centers, since they kinda blend in.

As soon as I saw that other card, I too wanted that set, but haven't gotten it yet. But I think your beautiful efforts will give me that final push. I was always going to get out my old PSX Poinsettia and give it a go. But I haven't even done that yet. Maybe later this week.
