It is the most wonderful time when three of my favorite people Challenge you to make a non-traditional-colored Christmas card! there's nothing I could do but grab a few cherished, and one new, Waffle Flower products, my favorite Copics and get to it!!
Why, yes, I did buy another Poinsettia... how could I resist this one??? This time I masked, and layered them up into a pretty bouquet, and Copic colored them in shades of purplish-blue-grey!
Hope they like it! I know a couple of my favorite guys will!

ReplyDeleteI like your unexpected color choice, this is nifty! And hey, a girl can never have too many poinsettia stamps... embossing folders... dies... hehe!
ReplyDeleteLike it? I LOVE it! Michele, the design is so pretty, your coloring is beautiful, and I always wish I had more poinsettia stamps. I love them.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful!! I LOVE how you masked and then colored these flowers in blue and gray. I wish poinsettias came in this color. Gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought to use that color combo for a poinsettia but your gorgeous card has made me a fan, Michele! It's a stunner! And I agree with Lisa, one can never have too many (fill in your crafty favorite) lol!
ReplyDeleteGood morning! Absolutely gorgeous card...loving the colours
ReplyDeleteThud. Wow! This is gorgeous, Michele. I think you have a winner. :)
ReplyDeleteNowadays, poinsettias can be any color, right? Especially in our stamping world! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful poinsettia bouquet, Michele! These colors are so unexpected and don't disappoint! Love the dots in the background too!
ReplyDeleteI sure do love it Michele. I love the non traditional colours and I can see why you' needed' to buy another poinsettia x.
ReplyDeleteIt's absolutely BEAUTIFUL Michele!! I'm loving the purple/blue with the gray and your coloring is just outstanding on this beauty! Such a pretty Poinsettia image too...can totally see why you HAD to add it to your collection!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteIt's glorious. I love the colors and I zoomed in to get a good look at those fabulous dots. How wonderfully they enhance this already gorgeous design...
ReplyDeleteI definitely like it, you do grey so well and I love how it morphs into blue. the little dots on the background really help it pop too. Just lovely xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful non-traditional colors for your gorgeous new poinsettia stamps, Michele. TFS Love and Hugs..Nancy
ReplyDeletehahaha you can NEVER have too many Poinsettias my friend. LOVE your choice of non traditional colours and beautiful design!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure that the new poinsettia stamp set is happy to be in your hands, and used to for such a gorgeous card like this, Michele. I love the unexpected color combo! Great job of masking to make a bouquet! The light gray shadow and dots in the background highlight the beauty of the poinsettias and the color choice for the gems is perfect!

Who would have thought that poinsettias could be that gorgeous in blue and gray? Why you of course, Michele.
ReplyDeleteThis is a complete stunner...was a bit taken aback with the blue ( I know how you love it) but the grey is the ideal counterpoint. What great shading on your coloring. Just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh when you said, "why yes, I bought another poinsettia" because I just had to have that one poinsettia you used on time and have yet to use it! Yikes! Maybe this will be the year and maybe not. Anyway, I love this poinsettia and the colors you colored it. Gorgeous! But what that is exactly what I expected it to be! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteNow let me just say that if I made a blue and gray poinsettia it would look like something that had been on my coffee table since 1967! But in your capable hands it is fresh, modern and stunning!
ReplyDeleteYou clever girl :) I really love all these lovely shades of purple for your Poinsettia's...Another gorgeous card, Michele ~ xx
