I actually had another card made last week, but on Wednesday after work I thought that it would be a great opportunity to use this poinsettia, which has been on my desk since last December. So, I don't remember what I coloured it with, except it's not all Twinkling H2Os, so some of it must have been plain watercolours, and there is some enamel accents on the berries. I used a graphite pencil to add some shading and depth to it, then stencilled around it with some Nuvo Mousse. I matted it onto gold and tied organza ribbon round both corners, then added the sentiment in the bottom corner. I'd been going to put it on a white base but it seemed a bit stark, so I used some DP from Santoro, edging it with gold line stickers because I can't draw straight lines with my leafing pen.

Love the beautiful glittery golds used throughout on your edges, background, ribbon, and imagery! Perfect dp as a muted background...the blue enhances and shows off your poinsettia imagery perfectly!

What a beautiful, elegant card, Sabrina! The gold stenciled edges set off your beautifully colored poinsettia perfectly! Love it! I also love your Snoopy watermark where he's hanging his Christmas stockings! I need to learn how to do a watermark!
