I got this poinsettia stamp last week along with a few others from this company "Stacy Stamps". Really pretty and great designs for coloring.

As I mentioned above, I really liked this stamp set. Tried it a couple times on black cardstock. Once using colored pencils (Super Ferby's) that really worked well, and this one using watercolor and a water brush filled with Iridescent Medium mixed with water. So in real it has a bit of a sheen to it. I had embossed the image with Queen's Gold and the centers are done with Ranger's White Enamel Accents.

I stamped the quote (Quietfire Design) with Versafine Toffee and embossed with the gold.

Adhered the ribbon ends to the back of the card and tied a bow in front, holding some of the ribbon in place with double sided tape so it wouldn't move. Added the white iridescent rhinestone stars around the edge and on the tails of the flourishes. I knew there was a reason I bought these.

Layered this onto a gold metallic cardstock (Recollections Precious Metals" pack) then onto a deep red card.
