Day 18, Letter "P" - 30 Days of Christmas

     Today we're using the letter "P" as our prompt in Beccy's Place 30 Days of Christmas and I chose one of Beccy's lovely Poinsettia images.  I made another gift card holder made from embossed, Pine Green CS.  The image is cut with a Pin Point die and I also used a die to cut Pine needles for the background.  The folder is tied with Peppermint Candy, red and white twine.  This one is done in my favorite Christmas color combo of red and green.  It's also another of my favorite traditional Christmas images which work better (I think) for adult gifts than cute-sy, childish images.


Just to show you how the inside of the folder looks, although this photo is of another folder I made.


Here's a link to the YouTube video I used to make these.

Perfect Poinsettias

     OK, it's Day 4 of the MKH Designs October Release and, as promised yesterday, I'm sharing another Christmas card.  I used the image and one of the sentiments from today's new set, "Perfect Poinsettias" and I just love how this turned out!


     Today I colored with my ProMarkers, then die cut it and the Hunter Green frame with two of my framing dies from Spellbinders.  I threaded white satin ribbon through the larger frame and added one of the bows I sew by the dozens, each with a pearl.  The sentiment was printed, hand cut and matted, then hand cut again.

     This is such a gorgeous, classic Christmas set and, although I have other poinsettia stamps in my collection, I do believe this one is my favorite for hands-on coloring.  The sentiments available in the set means it can be used for most of the winter holidays.  Or 'summer' holidays if you live down under.  :-D   Happy Stamping.  NanaConnie
