For today’s sketch challenge, I used Merry Merlot Cardstock to make a pretty poinsettia. I love this color for Christmas!
The sketch I followed is for the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge from Splitcoaststampers. I scored the lines at the top using the scoring blade on my Paper Trimmer to get the striped look.
Tips & Instructions
Merry Merlot Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4
Whisper White Layer - 5 1/4 x 4, score 5 lines, one every 1/4” and stamp sentiment beneath the scored lines using Merry Merlot Ink.
Merry Merlot Cardstock - cut poinsettias from Poinsettia Dies. I didn’t use the largest one. Adhere to each other by putting dot of glue at each center, offsetting each. Adhere to top corner using Dimensional only on the center.
Old Olive Cardstock - cut 4 of the smaller leaves and adhere under the poinsettia.
Gold Foil - cut 3 of the branches and adhere under the poinsettia. I cut them apart to have different sizes.
Add Gold Glitter Dot to center of the poinsettia.
