Festive Frames Blog Hop

Hello my friends and welcome to another Gina K blog hop!

Tonight we are showcasing the Festive Frame stamp set illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger.
I love the ivory colored poinsettia's with just a touch of pink on them so my favorite colored poinsettia was the inspiration for my color choices on this card...The papers are Black Onyx and Blush Blossom.

I stamped the frame with Tuxedo Black in on Ivory pl paper and colored everything with copics. I added stickle to the leaves on the poinsettia's and the berries. I used my white gel pen to add a touch of highlights to the pine cones. I cut the center of the frame out and popped it up over the sentiment. The sentiment was stamped with versmark and heat embossed using black ep. I then cut it out with an oval nestibility and watercolored the entire oval with my Sakura glitter pen and a niji brush. There is a lot of sparkle on this card.

Here is close up picture. I had a hard time getting a good picture of this card and it was a bright sunny day...go figure! Remember you can click on the pictures to get an even closer look.
