LeAnne, I wasn't sure your colors would work for me in my 'Christmas card mode' but I like them so much I had to give it a go!
The Paper Players team have made gorgeous use of LeAnne's colors
so, be sure to check them out and hey, why not play along?
I had this wonderful Poinsettia Frame set of products from Pinkfresh Studios out for a play and found several already stamped and ready for a bit of stenciling!
Here are the inks I chose/and mixed as stand-ins for those SU! colors:
Because it's a challenge from LeAnne, polka dots in the background
seemed just about right...
What do you think? Ever seen yellow Poinsettias before?
Well, now you have!
I've been busy making hot pepper jam over the weekend, but had
just enough energy left over for this card. I'd better get it delivered
before that laundry starts calling my name!

Thanks, LeAnne!

Wowza, these colors certainly DO work for this lovely Christmas card! Just delightful! What a sweet array of blooms as well as a lovely sentiment! THANKS for playing with my colors this week, Michele!
I was going to say if there aren't yellow poinsettias there should be 'cause look how beautiful they are! However, I looked them up and, sure enough, there ARE yellow poinsettias! What a gorgeous card in these soft colors, Michele. I never doubted you for a minute!
The colours work so well. Who cares if you don't get yellow poinsettias? xx
I LOVE the poinsettias in yellow! Such a fresh take on the challenge!
Wow, Michele! I must say I am a fan of yellow poinsettias! I love them in this nontraditional color. What a creative way to show off the challenge colors! I also love how the flowers frame the polka dot paper. This is a great layout. Thank you for playing with The Paper Players this week!
Your yellow poinsettias are lovely and polka dots are always a win in my book! Fabulous card, Michele!
Beautiful and very unexpected! Only you could pull off the perfect yellows and greens to make your poinsettias in the requested colors. Kudos, your card is wonderfully fun
Nature takes second place when it comes to art so yellow poinsettias are perfectly acceptable and lovely, Michele.
Yellow poinsettias? Yes, please! And those tiny polka-dots make a great background! I'm glad you found time to play around the laundry.
So very lovely!
So pretty Michele! Love the yellow poinsettias, so ha[[y! Always good to have another use for Christmas stamps. :)
Creative licence Michele - you can make flowers whatever colour you choose, so why not yellow poinsettias?! I am partial to any yellow flowers, so no complaints from me. I love the way the florals frame the sentiment - and kudos on the polka dots, you clearly know LeAnne too well!! Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
This turned out fabulously, Michele. Great use of the colors.
Gorgeous! The soft colors are beautiful!
Your card is gorgeous, Michele! I don't know if there are yellow poinsettias but after seeing your card, I think there should be! Love the little polka dots in the background too. Thanks for joining in with the Paper Players this week!
You truly are a magician! You've taken the least Christmassy set of colours I could imagine and turned them into a Christmas triumph! I love the way the blooms seem to float. Even those subtle polka dots add their star power into the mix. Thanks for sharing with us at The Paper Players.
Beautiful card. It's a head turner.
I definitely think these colours have made it to Christmas, love it Michelle!
