I bought a huge stack of wood slices online in one day deal and have been trying to use them up ever since. These are my makes this year and I love them. I’ve made three different ones and think they look great hung up on the tree.

There are so many things you and do with the wood slices. You can of course stamp on them. I would advise you to use Stazon ink to make sure it sticks to the wood slice and stays there of course. You can use black or in this case, I’ve used Saddle Brown. You can also paint them or sponge the paint onto them to make them look like snow.

I used die-cuts to decorate them. I love this poinsettia one, but then I love poinsettias. To make the die-cuts pop I inked the edges of all the die cuts to make them really pop against the background.

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.

How to Make a Poinsettia Die Cut Card – Christmas

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.

  • Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper – 14.35cm X 10cm

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.
