Good Morning Peeps! I have a sneak peek of a new clear stamp set from Sweet n' Sassy Stamps, December Poinsettia. Gorgeous flower image, don't you think? I used the new sketch from SplitCoastStampers, SC304.
Recipe: December Poinsettia (Sweet n' Sassy Stamps), French Script and Print Pattern Bg stamps (SU!)... Real Red and Always Artichoke card stock (SU!)... Always Artichoke classic and White Craft ink pads (SU!)... Pitch Black Adirondack ink... Copic Makers... Circle and Lacey Circle dies, and Diamonds and Stars Impressabilities (Spellbinders)... ribbon, red Baker's Twine, button, rhinestones (misc)... Tiny Tag die (SU!)...
Added some dimension by payering the flower image... can you even tell from the picture? I am having a hard time taking pics of my cards again...
My coloring is not the best... I can never pull off the pro look... but I am trying... don't know how to shade properly... I guess I need more colors...
Other challenges: Mark's Finest Papers-challenge #26... Delightful Challenges... Paper Garden-October challenge...
Thanks for visiting!

You know, we are our own worst critics. You did a fine job on your coloring. Mostly it is just practice, practice, practice. Love the card; the bling on the flowers really make them pop.
