This week at Hand Stamped Sentiments we have a color challenge – Baked Brown Sugar, Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler, These colors just say Christmas! I created this card using the Joyful Christmas stamp set.
I stamped two poinsettia flowers on vellum and embossed with gold embossing powder then colored it from behind. It’s such a pretty look. Like stained glass. I cut out the larger flower then cut the center from the other one. I used the same technique with the leaves and colored them with Garden Green.
For embellishments I used basic rhinestones in the center of the flower and Baked Brown Sugar ribbon. The sentiment is stamped with Cherry Cobbler and die cut with the Apothecary Accents Framelits die.

Ooh, I love this! The rich gold accents are gorgeous. I really need to try heat embossing on vellum, that look with your flowers is just amazing.
