Whew! I'm posting this a week late for the MMSC27 but I have until midnight to get this posted. There's already a MMSC28 posted for this week, but I'll hopefully get to that a little later.I used this gorgeous North Woods image, stamping it with Versafine Onyx Black and embossing it with clear ep before coloring it with Tombows. It's matted with Ruby Red cardstock. I used the Fleur de lis Pendant die on turquoise cardstock for the corner accents, and a MS arch lattice punch for the lower border. On the white cardstock base, I went around the edges with a gold deco pen, and stamped the Verve Christmas Poinsettia with versamark and embossed with gold jewel ep. The bottom accent was done with a Blossom Nestie in turquoise and embossed gold, and a punched poinsettia (punch by Carl) that was dotted with a gold deco pen. I added some hunter green ferns punched with a MS pine bough branch and added a topaz gemstone brad. The sentiment (by Verve) was done on PTI white, stamped in versafine onyx black and edged with a gold deco pen. For a final touch, I dotted the center of the flowers with yellow stickles and added a touch of silver deco pen to the ribbon on the flower pot.
Now I need to get busy and play catch-up! I was nursing a tender hand last week, but I'm feeling better now and hopefully I can catch up on some of my lost challenges! Christmas is coming!!!
Take care, and have a wonderful Tuesday!
