For today's card and video tutorial I am going to show you how to create a gorgeous Christmas card using the Poinsettia Petals bundle. I love, love, love the dies in this bundle because the dies create a subtle visual texture on the flowers and leaves! (super cool - watch my video below to see how this works)
Nothing says classy like Christmas poinsettias in your home so why not make a card using them as well?
Here's the Poinsettia Petals bundle - that I used for the phrase and the flower on my card:
I also used the Tin Tile 3D embossing folder to add texture to the Real Red layer but also because it has a matching embossed flower image:
When selecting my colors for this card I went with the traditional: Real Red and Old Olive. At the end of my video I show you a second color combination. Which pair do you like best? Leave me a comment below to let me know!

That is a beautiful Christmas card; I just started thinking about gathering supplies to make some homemade Christmas cards. I know I need to start soon so I can get them all made in time. Pinned.
