Christmas card club challenge 8

this week it was Mary's choice of theme and she wanted to see a Poinsettia or any type of christmas themed greenery...so I have gone for the poinsettia



I have used Tim Holtz layered tattered poinsettia...the background is tim Holtz holiday knits embossing folder....the centre of the flowers are prills...the rest is just distressing inks..and a Tim Holtz sentiment....I was going for pretty for a friend who loves pink...
Please pop by the other girls in the club and see their wonderful creations...their links are on my side bar....
thank you for visiting my blog today and I hope you are having a good weekend.

Always gorgeous when I visit to see your cards. That EF has never looked so good as it does in the background here. I love the way you've done the pink shading on the edges, with the lighter 'center' glow. The pink poinsettias are just lush and lovely, and the intricate style of the sentiment letters looks so elegant with this design. TFS & Hugs.

I love this card!!! I love the poinsettias with the pinkish/reddish hue and the background. It works out so well. I’m actually making some cards but they are still the thank you cards I’m trying to get done and am very late but I am getting them done
