I Know It Is Not Christmas Anymore....

but...I forgot to post this one...and it is one of my favorites! The poinsettia is from Me & Carrie Lou. I used gold cardstock that I bought from Flourishes and topped it with my Cuttlebug Snow Embossing folder. I colored with my Ciao Copic Markers and used Swarovski Crystals for the middle of the flower. I also used Stickles around the flower ends. I embossed with Gold Embossing Powder around the edge of the image. The happy holidays came from Dress Me Up. Here is a better close up...

and here is a side view.

Sorry I haven't posted in so long...I have been working on quite a few projects and hope to post them soon. Wish you all the best and thanks for your visit !
