Stamp and die cut 2 sets of the larger poinsettias using brown ink. Stamp and die cut 1 set of the large holly using dark green ink. Stamp and die cut 1 set of the small poinsettias in brown ink. Stamp and die cut 1 set of the small holly clusters using dark green ink. I added color to the poinsettias using Ruby red ink and daubers.

Using the 3D Poinsettia Shaping Mold, shape the poinsettia and holly. Assemble the layered poinsettias. Using liquid adhesive add glass glitter to the middle of each flower. Using a glitter pen, add sparkle to all of the petals. Let dry.
