Holiday Card - TSOT Sketch #644

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch on Tuesday #644 and using ColorMyHeart Color Dare "Six Pack" Challenge which gives you a choice of at least three colors from the Color Board #594. You're also free to use B&W, Neutrals and Metallics.  



Decided to do another Christmas card with these colors and the poinsettia die gave me two of the elements in the sketch.  Three die cuts were made, one in a Pine patterned paper and the other two using white cardstock.  Adhered the band and poinsettia to the small rectangular Shortbread cardstock. Petals from the white die cuts were adhered inside the green band and a second petal adhered with glue and thin foam tape for dimension.  Small gold sticker embellishments were added to the center of each flower.  

My two background panels were cut from two different Scarlet Mix-in patterned papers, layered with Pine and adhered to the card base. The poinsettia panel was also layered with Pine and then adhered to the background.  Sentiment will be added at a later date.  

On the inside border adhered the white poinsettia band without the leaves... in the picture you can barely see it; but it was a nice finish for the inside.  

Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #594 and check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.
