I wanted to make a pink poinsettia using the Poinsettia Dies but wasn’t sure which pink to use. I decided on Petal Pink Cardstock and then I sponged it with Petal Pink Ink to make it a little darker. It turned out great!
These dies are awesome. I love that you can just cut the stamped poinsettia and leaves but the best part is that you can use the middle piece to emboss while you cut. The embossing adds beautiful texture.
