Christmas Blooms

The colors of Christmas will soon be here! Bright winter whites, vibrant reds, and joyful blues make it a season of celebration and cheer. What can be more cheerful than a beautiful poinsettia?

I wanted to make this poinsettia feel elegant and delicate, so I used some fancy textured pearl paper for the Grand Luxe Poinsettia Background petals, red vellum for the Grand Luxe Poinsettia Outline, and glitter paper for the leaves. The Diamond Background was the perfect elegant touch. A few pearly Berry Sprigs are a nice compliment.  To make the leaves curl inward, gently roll the petals around a pencil and hold it in place for a few seconds. Add a few gold pearls for a center embellishment. Have a classy Christmas season, and enjoy the cheerful colors in your home with Poppystamps.

Live your life in color,
