On White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink stamp the holly leaves image from the Festive Holly and Cardinals Stamp Set, stamp the small poinsettias from the Ornate Sleight Stamp Set and stamp the large poinsettia blossoms from the Celebrate the Season Stamp Set and die cut all with their coordinating dies. Using Stack and Store Daubers, Fantastix and the Dove Blender Pen as needed, color the poinsettias and berries with Love Letters and Lady Bug Memento Inks and the leaves with New Sprout and Bamboo Leaves Memento Inks. Shape the poinsettias and holly branches with the Deluxe Flower Shaping tools.

With Dries Clear Adhesive add Heart of Gold Prills to the center of the poinsettia blossoms and add Mantis Glitter to the leaves. Using Dries White Glue add Rajni Chawla's Crystal Clear glitter to the poinsettias, leaves and design paper to create snow, as desired.
