PINK POINSETTIA CARD

Here are the steps to create this card.

I used the Star Burst Bloom die from Fun Stampers Journey to create the pieces of this flower.

I used Gelatos to color the petals.  Once colored, the petals were shaped using a shaping tool with a foam pad.

Here is the finished flower.

The background paper  was created with watercolor paper.  I used Fun Stampers Journey Color Splash water color pencils to create.  Add a small amount of water to your stamp block.  Scribble the pencil into the water.  Spritz water onto the water color paper.  Now take a brush and get the red onto the wet paper.  Cover all of the sheet with red.  Make sure the paper stays wet while spritzing with alcohol onto the red. 

This technique creates a very pretty texture.

The holly leaves and cluster leaves were cut from Fun Stampers Journey Blooms Holiday die set 

JM-0048.

I colored the holly and cluster leaves with water color pencils.  Once colored, I used a water brush to blend the colors.l

 The card stock is from Fun Stampers Journey.  The base color is Sweet Berry (11" x 4-1/4") and folded in half.  (5-1/2" x 4-1/4")
Then the Brushed silver was cut to (5-1/4" x 4")
The water color paper was cut to (4-3/4" x 3-3/4")

The embellishments were glued to the card front. The banner saying was heat embossed in silver embossing powder and the  pearl were made with Viva Decor Pearl Pens in Opal color.
