This week's ODBD challenge is to make a Christmas or Thanksgiving card - I chose Christmas. I used Luke 2:11 as my focal image (the real meaning of Christmas), and then I made several poinsettias to surround the verse on top of some pretty DP that I sponged, matted, and pierced. I really enjoyed making the dimensional flowers and did absolutely no coloring on this card - wow! Thanks for taking a closer look, and I hope you like it!

This is just beautiful, Cheryl. Those poinsettias are gorgeous. Love how they frame your sentiment. Great find on the the DSP -- looks like it was made just for this card.

Gorgeous and elegant, Cheryl. Love the true message of Christmas beautifully scripted here. Just gushing over not one, but three, yes, count them, THREE stunning poinsettias love their colour; so very rich.
