I'm diligently trying to use up old supplies and enjoying that task. For the white panel, I inked up the poinsettia, stamped it off once and lightly stamped it for a background and then gold embossed the sentiment over it. A thin strip of paper was adhered and folded around the sides. The small poinsettia was gold embossed and colored with marker and ink, then fussy cut and raised up on Dimensionals. I used a retired DSP that had a pattern that was perfect for the poinsettia theme. The paper colors use two retired reds and two greens, one retired. This card is also be linked to the Christmas Card Challenge for March - poinsettia theme. Thanks for looking! Hope you can use the sketch.

Beautiful way to use that stash . . ..I like how you anchored your angular panel with the tiny gold beads and the repeating poinsettias from element to element.
