Layered Poinsettia Cards with Eloise and Leanne

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I’m using the Layered Poinsettia’s Die Set to create some Christmas Tags. I used the Scalloped Tag Circle Dies for the base and also used the Woodgrain Embossing Folder for some added texture and the Merry Mice Stamp Set for the sentiment.

I started off with die cutting out all my layers of the poinsettia die from different shades of cardstock. I then layered them together and adhered them. While I was die cutting, I also cut out three Scalloped Circle Tags from white cardstock and also grey cardstock and then ran the white ones through with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.

Next I cut down the grey pieces a little to create a diagonal look, added foam tape onto the bottom and adhered them onto my white tags at the bottom. I then adhered the poinsettia’s with foam tape too. For the sentiment I used the Merry Mice Stamp Set, curved the ‘Merry Christmas’ in my MISTI and stamped it with black ink onto the bases of the tags. Lastly, I tied two types of twine through the tops of each of the tags.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed these tags and I’ll see you next week.

Hi crafty friends, Leanne here! I have another card to share that features the Layered Poinsettia. If you recall, my card from last week combined the poinsettia and buffalo plaid. I really loved that look so I have used that combination again for this week. I've used a very traditional color palette with some glittery accents for a more elegant design.

I started with an A2 sized card base. I cut a panel of white card stock about a quarter inch smaller than A2 dimensions. I added some black paint splatters then layered it on top of some black glitter card stock with foam tape. I created a red and black plaid strip using a stamp from the Background Basics set. I adhered this strip towards the left side. I stamped out some pine boughs from the Christmas Trimmings set. I created the Layered Poinsettia using dark green card stock for the bottom layer and white for all the petals. I used a light green ink pad with a sponge dubber to add shading to the larger petal edges and completely color the tiny petals. 

Before adhering the pine boughs and poinsettia, I heat embossed the greeting in silver. The Merry Christmas greeting also comes from the Christmas Trimming set. To finish off the card, I frosted the poinsettia petals with Nuvo White Blizzard Glitter Drops and scattered a few dots of Nuvo Sliver Crystals Glitter Drops.
