How to Colour the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set

How to Colour the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I absolutely love the Poinsettia Petals stamp set. It carried over from the catalogue last year and I was so pleased. If you have read my blog before you will know I adore poinsettias and colouring. This card is a match made in heaven for me. I used the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers to colour. I put a talking book and spent a lovely, relaxing time colouring in.

The Stampin’ Blends come in combo packs of a light and dark of each colour. If I wanted more shading I used more than one colour eg I used Real Red and Cherry Cobbler for the red and Olive and Mossy Meadow for the green.

Making a Simple Christmas Card – Season Blessings

Making a Simple Christmas Card – Season Blessings – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I love poinsettias. We have a few in the house. My mother has managed to keep them alive through the whole year and they turn red again in the Christmas period. I always want to buy new ones but we don’t have the space to keep them all alive throughout the whole year. We have some fake ones in three vases on the hall table and they look amazing even if they are fake.

How to Make a Poinsettia Christmas Candle

How to Make a Poinsettia Christmas Candle – Poinsettia Petals – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Stamped Candles

I love stamping my own candles. They look so good!! I made some use the poppy stamp set and gifted them to my neighbour who is an oncologist at the local hospital.

This candle is made using the fabulous Poinsettia Petals stamp set. I’ve used this stamp set for a card before and the die set for another card. In order to make this candle I stamped on white tissue paper using the non-shiny side. I stamped in Stazon and then coloured in using the Real Red and Crushed Curry Stampin’ Write markers. It came out well don’t you think?

One trick I would like to share is that I stamped all the flowers and then coloured them all in. I then cut around around the flowers leaving as little space tissue paper as possible but no being too concerned about it either. I positioned and heat set each flower individually. This worked better for me than trying to do all three in one go.

How to Make a Poinsettia Die Cut Card – Christmas

How to Make a Poinsettia Die Cut Card – Christmas Card – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love the Peony petals stamp set and matching dies so much. They are simply amazing. This card only uses stamping for the sentiment and the dies really do sing loud here. This is a card we made in a recent card club. All the details can be found here. I wanted to share this card with you as we all had such fun making it.

The dies not only cut out the shape but also emboss some texture to each leaf. The same dies also cut out the stamped images. They are just so versatile. I’ve inked the edges of all the foliage and it makes such a difference. It just gives everything depth, texture and interest. I used a simple sponge and the matching ink pads.

Do you love Red Poinsettias? Alcohol Markers – SU!

Do you love Red Poinsettias? Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’m so impressed with how this card turned out. I love the red poinsettias. They are gorgeous. We always have one each year. My mother has actually managed to keep one a live for a few years now and each year the leaves turn red in the winter.

The poinsettia is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I actually used both Cherry Cobbler and Real red, graduating from lightest to darkest to get all the shading I wanted. I did the same with the leave using both Mossy Meadow and Old Olive. This I felt gave better depth and definition to the images. I layered up 3 different sizes of poinsettia leaves to get the 3D effect that you see here.

Make Your Scraps Useful – Christmas Card

Make Your Scraps Useful – Christmas Card – Independant Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

I had some scraps left over from making my gift bag featured in the previous post. Rather than just putting them back into my stash I decided to use them to make this simple and easy Christmas Card. I do need to start making more cards if I am going to have enough to send myself and for my mother to send as well.

The Poinsettia Place designer series paper (DSP) is great as it can be used for Christmas but also for other seasons such as Autumn as well. I love this berry design as soon we will be in Autumn and see the birds gorging themselves on berries to fill up their tummies.

I love Poinsettia’s – Pretty Gift Bag for Mother

I love Poinsettia’s – Pretty Gift Bag for Mother – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

So what do you think of these pretty gift bags? I would love to received a gift in one of these, wouldn’t you?

Poinsettias, with their red leaves, just say Christmas time to me. I was surprised when I saw the Poinsettia Place designer series paper (DSP) and realised none of the poinsettias were red. Being a naturally curious person I decided to do a little research. I found that now there are different varieties of poinsettia with pale yellow, plum and dusty pink bracts.

These bags would be perfect for any time of the year. The berries are autumnal and the flowers do not ring out Christmas as they would with red leaves.
