You know what I love most about Christmas cards? Feeling like there can never be too much bling on them! I loaded this baby up with silver sparkled ribbon, silver embossing powder, half pearls and beaded snowflakes!
This poinsettia is a new digi image from DZ Doodles. I printed it out 3 times and layered it for dimension. A versamark pen and some silver embossing powder added the sparkle and copics added the color! I still deem myself a Copic flunkie because I used 3 different colors and you can't even tell! LOL...I will leave the copics to the pros.
I used the Spellbinders square Nesties and one of the tags from the Fancy Tags collection. Each layer was stitched with my sewing machine, using Madeira rayon thread.
I used Bazzil cardstock and both Basic Grey and Making Memories DP.
I love your comments so let me know what you think!
Challenges:

Beautiful card, Peg. Love the colours - especially making the poinsettia blue. And I can see you spend a long time on your cards (as do I!) - from all the detailing, stitching and embossing. Great work.
Thanks for joining us on PaperPlay this week.

Hi Peg
Great take on Brenda's challenge.
I love your colour choice, all the fantastic stitching and of course "the bling". You can never have too much of this on a Christmas Card.
