Countdown to Christmas 2023 – Week 3

Week 3 of my Countdown to Christmas 2023 series is this Christmas card.

If you’ve been around for a while you will know that I love a poinsettia project.

This one uses a combination of Poppy Parade, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight, with Basic White.

The background is from the new Modern Garden Stamp Set with the dots given a touch of Wink of Stella for some festive sparkle.

To create the poinsettias, these are also from the Modern Garden Stamp Set. They have been stamped and then cut out and layered.

There is a coordinating punch with this Stamp Set, but unfortunately, it’s the Modern Oval shape I used for the sentiment, so the poinsettias all had to be fussy cut!

As I’m not a fan of fussy cutting, it’s safe to say that if you receive this card from me you’re someone special!

Using the Christmas Classics Stamp Set, another new product from the Mini Catalogue, the sentiment is stamped onto the punched Modern Oval shape.

The sentiment and flowers are then stuck together and raised up on Dimensionals.

Finally, some Iridescent Rhinestones add a bit more sparkle.

I think this project would look great in other colours too for a non-traditional look.

Join me at one of my classes. Head to my Class Timetable for full details.

Happy crafting
