I was inspired by this article from "A Beautiful Mess"
Pretty simple except for lots & lots & lots of fussy cutting. Stamped my poinsettia 3 times - once on the card base for a guide, then on an orange, red & gold mottled DSP, and finally on a DSP in several shades of green & beige. I cut individual leaves from the DSP and glued onto my card base to complete the poinsettia. Finished with a scattering of deep orange gum drops and a simple Christmas sentiment.

Just beautiful. What a terrific job cutting all those pieces. There isn't enough wine for me to attempt that. Haha. I love your added glitter gum drops.

Oh my! That is a gorgeous stamp! Your piecing technique really lets is shine beautifully. I like your idea of stamping on the base as a guide - I need to remember that! I really like the style of the sentiment. It matches with the poinsettias very well. What a triumph of paper piecing this is!
Oh wow!! This is going into my faves. It is a favorite of the year for me. All that fussy cutting. It's simply outstanding. I know this took lots of time.
