It’s beginning to look like Christmas here on my blog-o, and I only realized that it’s the thing to do, when I remembered that I’m doing the craft market in a couple of short weeks and I’ll need some serious stash for the upcoming Holidays… what can I say, I’m doing what I can in the time on hand!! Oh, and let’s not forget about the major joy factor, because it never fails, I just LOVE playing with my Christmas and Winter themed goodies!! That being said… welcome to another installment of the Countdown
My aim is to share a new Christmas card made with Penny Black stamps each week. This time I reached for my favourite sentiment from the Glad Tidings stamp set (these are seriously drool-worthy!!) and I paired it with the Christmas Pride poinsettia stamp, which I heat embossed on vellum. I’m stoked with the result, I think this card might actually be a keeper
The patterned papers are scraps from older My Mind’s Eye collections, Lime Twist & Collectable.

Beeeeautiful card girlie! That delicate poinsettia is stunning!
Gorgeous card live the vellum embossed flower
I LOVEEE that vellum embossed flower. The enamel dots are the perfect finishing touch, too! Congrats on the tweet from Penny Black.
OHHHH!! The green poinsettia is fantastic and a show stopper!
Fabulous card! The poinsettia by itself made me fall in love with it! TFS
I love this so much! the whole vibe puts a new spin on a christmas card!
Just amazing - swoooooon - that poinsettia is gorgeous!
I’d say the card is definitely a keeper. Beautiful!
Chupa, that poinsettia is drop-dead-gorgeous! Seriously, I am drooling!!! I need a pretty poinsettia stamp and I think I just found it. Thanks for all of the inspiration!
