Instructions: Ready top fold card measures 6.5"x 6.5". To prepare the card mats, first choose a pattern paper from the designer paper collection and cut a piece measuring 6.25" x 6.25", mat it on the ready card base. Choose a card panel from the designer paper collection and distress the edges. Layer it on the white cardstock, 1/16" of an inch bigger on all 4 sides. Further, layer it on the ready card base using dimensional tape for added dimensions.
Take two pieces of same designer paper and cut diagonally. Adhere it on the ready card base using dimensional tape as shown. Stamp the large poinsettia flower on the flower making paper using Red Geranium color and cut with coordinating dies. Paint the flowers with same color and shape them with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit, pierce the centers and add stamens. Also stamp leaves using library green color and cut with coordinating dies. Color the leaves using library green and emerald green color and slightly shape them.
Arrange the flowers and leaves on the card and glue them using hot melted glue. Also glue some stamens. Tie a bow using white cord and glue it on the card. Cut a sentiment ticket from the same collection and layer it on the white cardstock. Also cut a tag from the same collection and layer it on the card using dimensional tape as shown.
For the finished look, apply sparkling dust and frosted sugar on the flowers using adhesive that dries clear.
