I layered holly paper onto a square of dark red card and attached it to the card front before die cutting and embossing the precoloured image and attached it to the centre. The small poinsettia flowers were die cut and embossed from red card and attached to the top and bottom corners. The gold flowers were die cut from a snippet of gold holographic card and attached to the centre of the poinsettias. To finish I added a Wink of Stella to the fur on the girl's clothing and Stickles to the snowflakes.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6" white card blank
Lili of the Valley 'Girlie Christmas' Art Sheet
Spellbinders Nestabilities 'Decorative Labels One', 'All Occasions Dies 'Small Poinsettia' and Memory Box 'Mini Holly Leaves' dies
Kars tan embossing mat
Wild Rose Studio 'Annabelle's Christmas' paper
Dark red embossed card
Diamond Stickles
Wink of Stella
