Thanks so much for such a wonderful response to my Card Sale. I am closing the sale for a couple of days to catch up on special orders.
Just for fun last night I created two very similar cards using the poinsettia dies. I think these may be my favorite of all the Christmas cards I have made this season.
I don’t know about you but I so love how the red poinsettias and green foliage pop against the all white background. Here’s a closer view of both.
The first of the two cards is fuller with added holly leaves and small berries. The larger frame opening gave opportunity to add more foliage. I love the little ribbon loop in the top of the first arrangement and the ribbon tails. Here are a couple more views.
Thanks for coming and looking at my new projects. You can check out my poinsettia tutorial if you would like to see step by step photos of how I make my flowers. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday and that you have the opportunity to do some paper crafting.

Can’t wait to see your next project.
Gorgeous cards! The flowers and pines look amazing in the beautiful “frames!” 🙂
Oh to be on your Christmas card list Kittie. Those that are, are extremely lucky. I love all of the eye candy, and tutorials, you take the time to share with us. Thank you so much.
These are beautiful! Thanks for the tutorial too.
Gorgeous and beautiful cards!
Love how you added the little red
berries..must remember that. Both
cards are lovely.
GF, I just absolutely love all your cards. Have not had my mojo hopping in so long but you do inspire me to get up and play with these dies and make some special cards.
Another stunning beauty, Kittie. Your meticulous attention to detail is what sets you apart. I have had an amazing crafting weekend (yes, I had the entire weekend to myself!) thanks to all of the inspiration I have had from your tutorials and your cards. It’s been a while since I have been this excited to try something new and I thank you for being the inspiration behind my newly generated enthusiasm.
Awesome! You just keep outdoing yourself.
Kittie – I discovered your blog for the first time today and have spent more than a couple of hours going through it. Gorgeous!!
With all the dimension on your cards, what have you found is the best way to send them through the mail without damaging them?
Thanks – Lynne
Loving the poinsettia series, Kittie!
