Layered Poinsettia


Good Morning
This new stencil from A Colorful Life Designs is so pretty and it's called;

It's easy to ink up onto a piece of cardstock, but I took it a step further to give my flower more interest and dimension.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed the Layered Poinsettia stencil over a piece of white cardstock and inked it up with some Barn Door, Candied Apple and some Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink.
  • I repeated that process on another piece of white cardstock, splattered both flowers with my white Posca pen and set aside to dry.
  • While that dried, I placed the Poinsettia leaves onto another piece of white cardstock and inked that up with some Rustic Wilderness DOX ink.
  • Next, I placed the Merry Christmas stencil over the stenciled leaves and inked that up with some more of the Barn Door DOX ink and splattered that as well.
  • I fussy cut out both of the poinsettias, then used some foam tape to position one of them over the leaves.  
  • I took the second poinsettia and cut out just some of the flower petals, rolled them with a pencil and then used some foam tape to pop them over the larger one.  It really gave lots of great dimension to the flowers by layering the petals.
  • I glued the card base to a piece of burgundy cardstock and then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • Finally, I added some Glossy Accents to the flower center.

Here are the stencils I used:
