Merry Poinsettia Slimline

Hi Crafty Friends,

It’s challenge time with the “Crazies” over on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. Amy Ottmers our challenge hostess for the month, continues to issue the challenges.

It's the third Saturday of the month, so it's time for a sketch challenge!


As I had Trinity Stamps Stitched Strips die set in my stash which I hadn't used yet, I decided to  use this sketch and make a Slimline card. I used the two wider stitched strips dies included in the die set to die cut the strips using two different patterned papers.

I added a coordinating pattern paper to the top portion of my card.

For the panel on the sketch I used Waffle Flower Crafts A7 Layers die set to create the two layered panels. 

I decorated this panel using MFT Stamps Stacked Merry Die-namics for the large sentiment.

I added the poinsettia to the top right hand corner of the panel using Spellbinders Glimmer Poinsettia set. The "Christmas" sentiment is from Spellbinders Holiday Sentiments Glimmer set.


For the inside of the card I used Karen Burniston's Long Rectangles - Crosshatch for the white panel. I added another of the gold foiled poinsettia's to the top right corner of the panel.

The sentiment is an older one in my stash from Paper Inspirations.


Don't forget to check out the rest of the “Crazies” cards over on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog and also their individual blogs for more details.
