Here is my creation:


My image is from DRS, "Giant Poinsettia".  This is such a lovely rubber stamp!  I colored with Copic markers and then outlined my circle with gold leaf and mounted on Spellbinder's lotus pendant.  My poinsettia flowers are from Prima.  Basic Grey's Jovial Collection adds the finishing touch.

My next card was designed by our own Priscilla of "Priscilla Styles".  This is her newest design, "Christmas Stocking".  There are just so many possibilities with this gorgeous image!

Marsha you have got your groove on girlfriend with these two fabulous cards. Your MMSC card is just spectacular with the beautiful poinsettia focal point and the pretty floral accenting it. The flourishes were the perfect touch. Your "priscillastyles" card is just jaw dropping and I love all the sparkle and shine you created with to make it so glitzy. Just loving it. Beautiful work!!!
