Center Step Poinsettia

For this week at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges we are asking people to make step cards. For my card I chose to do a center step card. I've used the Be of Good Cheer Designer Paper, and the Christmas Blessings Designer Paper, along with Gold Embossing powder, and Garden Green ink and Raspberry Ripple ink and Ribbon. the card was made using the video from Dawn's Stamping Thoughts to make the center panel longer. I stamped and embossed the image onto very vanilla using versamark and embossed with gold and colored with aqua painter and inks. Stamped the sentiment from the set in Garden Green ink. the paper was cut and then mounted onto very vanilla, then mounted onto the garden green base. The center panel was put onto a Raspberry Ripple piece then a gold piece then onto the base.

A Sketch for this week at Holly Jolly

 

This is my card for Holly Jolly this week. We are sponsored by Fred She Said this week, but I chose to use my own Idea for the card this time. For Christmas from one of the residents where I work, they gave me a box of goodies as they know I do card making and such. They bought me a few stamps a bunch of paper flowers, and also some stickers. This tree is one of the stickers from the recollections set that she bought. Its very pretty and just fit the sketch perfectly. I've paired it with real red and used some of the champagne glimmer paper. Also I used the sentiment from the Petite Pairs set. 

Thanks for looking
