Poinsettias are undoubtedly one of the most recognizable of all plants. Not only do I love to decorate my home with them during the holiday season, I LOVE to include them on my Christmas cards. I hope you enjoy today’s easy Poinsettia Christmas card. It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week it is the super-talented Joanne’s turn to host our monthly color challenge. Don’t you love this trio of colors, accented with a touch of Silver or Gold? As you can tell, I decided on a punch of gold. How about you? Team Silver or Team Gold? I can’t wait to see what YOU create!!!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
Don’t you love a card that packs a “Wow” but is oh-so-easy to create? Today’s card is that type of card. Now easy doesn’t necessarily mean quick. There is layering – scrumptious plush paper on top of brushed metallic cardstock – but layering isn’t difficult. There is die cutting – metallic leaves and berries, as well as die cut images from pattern paper – but die cutting isn’t hard. There is heat embossing involved with the gorgeous scripted “Merry Christmas” sentiment – but heat embossing is fun! I really hate to tell you how quickly this card comes together, especially if you take advantage of my free tutorial which includes all the paper measurements!

Ann, sorry to be late with my comment this week! Your background is stunning to showcase this gorgeous white poinsettia. I love white poinsettias. Every detail is stunning!!!!!! The gold accents are so elegant, too!
This is STUNNING Ann!! I was team silver but I can be swayed!! I have those flowers and berries already cut and love the way you used the flocked paper on the gold – i am definitely CASTING this one!!
Absolutely stunning, Ann! The gold accents really add such elegant detail. Wow!
Lots of gold and a perfect balance of the other challenge colors make this one stunning card, Ann! Love the white poinsettia bouquet and that flocked paper looks amazing. Totally gorgeous!
LOVELY card..my stamp clubs fell in love with this bundle as well as the fuzzy paper, LOL! You’ve highlighted both in such a pretty way with the gold foil! Beautiful!
Beautiful poinsettia and a lovely collage, Ann – a card after my own heart! Love it! 🙂
Ann, beautiful card! Glad to see I’m not the only one who will be CASE’ing this card. And thanks so much for the tutorial.
This is so beautiful that I had to CASE it–made it a regular A2 card and it’s still pretty! Thanks for sharing the directions and your creativity!
So pretty, love the gold!
So elegant and beautiful!! Love that gold too!
LOVE!
Ann, I love the gold leaves the embossing really pops on the metallic card stock. I love the richness all the gold brings and the pop of red is just perfect. Fabulous take on the colors.
Hugs

The Poinsettia specialty paper is so rich looking. Using many diff. items on cards makes so much difference as it picks up all the end results making for a awesome card like this one. Ex.-Touch of pearls, etc.
Wonderful card. I will be CASEing this lovely card.
Gorgeous card Ann and I love the gold accents
Have yourself a wonderful day
