todays challenge called for stencilling...not having any stencils, I made one by using a border punch on white paper... I then sponged top of card with regal rose... I punched another white border using it like a border for the poinsettia...using pink vellum and white ep, I embossed poinsettia and placed rhinestone in the middle... I also punched leaves to use behind the flower...
Thanks for taking a peek... Hope you like it...

I'm glad your card arrived!
What great improvisation - using the punch to create a stencil has worked brilliantly, and then combining the stencilling with the punch just looks so cool! Gorgeous colour, too - I like this, it has a lovely fresh feel to it for a Christmas design.

Love the sentiment and the fact it's on the front of your pretty card, Alice! I really like your flower and sprigs too! I went to Mike's workshop and got some dry wall tape for my card. Maybe Mick has some you could use, or ask your brother to bring some when he visits.......
