Christmas card

Hello there, mid week already!!  Are you enjoying your week?

If you are looking for my 100th Post Celebration giveaway, click Here.

I am seriously late on making my Christmas cards this season, web served too much!!  :P

Got one card done today.  Speckled texture background using embossing pasted mixed with Pearl acrylic paint, inked poinsettia with distress and dye ink and heat embossed greetings.  Simple enough.  Let's take a look:


I think I was a little heavy handed when adding the Wink of Stella onto my flower, it's so glittery that it becomes fuzzy in the photo.  I promise you it looks much better in real life.  Here's another shot:
