I made this snippets card for the Christmas Draw Challenge in Pixie's Snippets Playground using snippets left over from other cards.
I die cut five stitched squares from gold mirri and five layered poinsettias from red embossed card. I placed the card blank into my MISTI and laid the gold squares across it so I could see where to place the sentiment. I removed the squares and stamped the sentiment a couple of times in dark red ink and then once in a brighter red ink so it matched the colour of the poinsettias. I attached the gold squares with Pinflair glue to give me a little 'wriggle room' so I could line them up evenly and then attached the poinsettias. The gold centres were die cut from teeny tiny snippets of gold mirri left over from die cutting the squares - these were then attached to the centre of the poinsettias.

A beautifully designed card Kath,the gold with your red poinsettia looks beautiful against the white card
The gold mats and beautiful red poinsettias look fabulous on this DL card Kath, and a great way of using up some leftover bits, and the sentiment tones perfectly with the flowers and love the gold centres too. x
