Julie chose a gorgeous site. I took my inspiration from this: https://www.mackenzie-childs.com/pep...k_Dynamic_CRIT
Loved the black and white checks but I do not have anything like it. Oh well, dots to the rescue.
I laid the black crochet ribbon back to back to make it wider. Popped up the label die with foam tape. Used delicata ink around the tips of the die and gold shimmer stix on the poinsettia petals. The leaves are lime glitter color from myths & magic, but they look gold in the pic, I see. tfl

WOW! what a standout combination of dotted papers...they work so marvelously together and with your lime green elements! Love your black sentiment mat die-cut with the gold shimmer stix touches. Your poinsettia die-cuts look like red velvet with a bit of gold shimmer additions to selective petals. A lovely Christmas card!!

Wow Shirl, what a truly striking and festive card this is! I agree with Carlene that you used a standout combination of dotted papers and black trim to set a beautiful stage for these gorgeous gold-highlighted poinsettia's and your fancy sentiment panel. This beauty really stands out in the gallery and I felt a swoon coming on immediately! ~Karen.
