Joy to the World Poinsettia Card


Here is the third and last card for my November Card Class. 


For this card, I started with the Vintage Notes Background Stamp using Oatmeal Cookie Ink. I then swiped the edges with the Clear Pigment pad and added Gold embossing Powder and Heated. 

The other piece on the background is a piece of Gold Mirror Cardstock and embossed with the Inspire Embossing Folder

Joy to the World is from the Holiday Joy Stamp Set and was stamped with Clear Pigment Ink and Gold Embossing Powder.  It was stamped onto a matching Die from the Special Days Tag Dies

The Pine sprigs behind the Poinsettia are from the Branches and Cones Die Set.
The Poinsettia is from the Christmas Sprig Stamp Set and colored with Copic Markers.  I stamped, colored and cut out an extra two layers of the Poinsettia and layered with Journey Foam Squares
