Bonnie Krebs, Art Impressions owner/creator designed this large, beautiful 5209 - SBC Exclusive Poinsettia set which is available exclusively from Scrapbooks.com. I stamped the image in versa mark and then heat embossed it with Wow Metallic Platinum Sparkle Embossing Powder. The pictures do not do justice to the brilliant shine. I watercolored the poinsettias first using Ranger Distress ink in candy apple on a palette. After the poinsettias were dry, I used 757 to make the darker areas. I used 249 on the holly leaves and then after they dried, I added 026 to the holly. I watercolored the berries in 827 and after they dried, I added 606 to darken them. I used the 5063 - A2 Rectangle Double Stitched dies to cut out the picture and the frame around it. I stamped and embossed the sentiment and cut out the banner for it from the 5133 - Banner Dies.
