Another 2 weeks have gone by since our last challenge at the CCC and this time Carol has chosen Christmas Flowers for her theme. I absolutely adore Poinsettias and that is what I have used for my card today. I started with a white 7 X 7 card, and then a piece of matted card to that I added a TH stencil and Distress Inks in Festive Berries and Pine Needles for the Holly. The decoupaged Poinsettia was made with the Marianne die. The lovely swirls are from Sue Wilson and the sentiment stamp from Serendipity Stamps. Looking forward to seeing what my crafty sisters have created for Carol's Challenge. Enjoy your Sunday and the forthcoming Easter Weekend. hugs Rita xxxxx

Absolutely gorgeous Rita, I love your design, and the combination of the stenciled and die cut poinsettias is brilliant, Kate x
Gorgeous! Love your smooth stenciling and the design looks marvelous with the border and the rich gold on the opposite side. The layered dimension of the poinsettia with the brighter gold swirls is a fantastic embellishment that ties both sides together so beautifully. TFS & Hugs
