Good morning, y'all! It's a cold, wet morning here - the coldest morning of the season so far!! But I'm resisting the urge to turn the heater on because we'll be back in the 70's by Friday. LOL

[jkanack]

well we're at 32, warmed up from 25, bird bath water is frozen, we WILL NOT return to 70: FF23hbrown Blue and White Poinsettias by jkanack at Splitcoaststampers

We just watched the weather and it shows we'll be at 79 and 80 this weekend. Such wild temperature swings!

[Stamples]

I love poinsettias as well! Unfortunately, I only have one, and it's this die, so I decided to jazz up the background of the die a bit, hopefully not too much. Thanks for this challenge!

Here's my card: Alcohol Poinsettia

Great challenge, thank you! I have been wanting to use this die set for awhile- paired it with a stamped Christmas words background and some embellishments. Here's FF23hbrown Christmas Poinsettia

[lovinpaper]

I have a new stamp and die set that I have been working on using. I found it a bit more complicated to use than I expected, but I finished one card with the set.
