Stamp, color, die cut and shape poinsettias using silver Delicata ink and a bit of blue Copic marker.  Glue two layers together and then add silver Prills to the centers.  Stamp pine boughs, sticks,  and pinecones using silver, die cut.  Stamp small candle and holly border using black then die cut and color. Add the holly border and candle to the ornament. 

Make an arrangement with the white poinsettias, sticks, pine boughs and pinecones at the left bottom side of the ornament.   Make a bow with metallic ribbon and glue it to the top of the ornament. Add glitter to the poinsettias and randomly to the card.

Now to warm you back up again!! I used the Petunia blooms to make some other flower, 
one with lots of stamen.




HC PRODUCTS USED      

Other Products:
White cardstock, embossing folder from Cuttlebug, foam sheet, Nuvo clear shimmer brush  (or Wink of Stella-clear).

For more tips on creating with the flower shaping molds, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/FSdPL7nXvQE
Instructions:
Card size: 6 X 6”.  Cut white cardstock 12 X 6” then fold in half.  Cut a piece of decorative paper 5 3/4 X 5 3/4" then glue it to the card base.  Cut a strip of white cardstock 1 1/4" X 5 3/4", run it through the die cutting machine with an embossing folder.  Cut 2 white Sweetheart Borders and 2 Festive Holiday Dies.

Stamp sentiment using Majestic Violet onto white cardstock then cut out with a circle die to fit.   Cut 1 decorative paper circle for a mat  a little larger than the sentiment and cut a circle foam sheet the same size.  Stack the circles together and glue.  Glue Sweetheart borders to the back side of the embossed strip then glue horizontally to card center.  Glue Festive Holiday Die cuts to the back of the circle stack top and bottom so that ends just meet at the sides of circle.  Glue circles with die cuts to the center of the strip on card.

Stamp leaves using Fern Green then sponge with Leaf Green and Majestic Violet.  Die cut and shape in the mold (see video).  Stamp Petunias using Majestic Violet then shape using the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit, pushing down hard in the center to give a good cup.  Glue 2 blossoms plus a green base together for each flower then pierce the center of each flower and insert small yellow stamen then 1 medium beaded wire stamen, dab some glue in the stamen well and let dry before trimming off wire and threads from stamen.

Arrange leaves around the left side of the sentiment and then glue flowers onto the leaves around sentiment.  Glitter all flowers, add random glitter to the card face.  Brush shimmer from Nuvo shimmer brush or Wink of Stella on the leaves.

Thanks for visiting today!

Philippians 2:9-11

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
