It's the fourth Rudolph Day of the year and another card using die cuts (die cutting is my RD theme this year). I used a poinsettia die and lots of snippets to make this CAS Christmas card.
To make this card I used:
5" x 5" white hammer card blank
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Square STAX Die-namics', All Occasion Dies 'Small Poinsettia' & Memory Box 'Mini Holly Leaves'
Snippets of red pearlescent card, white hammer card and gold mirri card
I die cut a square from white hammer card, layered it onto a slightly larger square of red pearlescent card and attached it to the centre of the card blank. I die cut and embossed the three different size poinsettias from red pearlescent card, layered them and attached them to the centre of the square. To finish I die cut holly berries from gold mirri card and attached them to the centre of the poinsettia.
I am entering the following challenges:
Alphabet Challenge - P for Poinsettia
As You Like It Challenge - Clean & Simple or Fussy & Fancy (it's always CAS for me - if I try a fussy card it always seems to look messy)
Christmas Kickstart Challenge - Positively Poinsettias
Rudolph Day - April Challenge
Sparkles Christmas Challenge - Christmas Foliage
This is my last post for a few weeks as we're off on our travels on Sunday. We're starting with a visit to our families, then a couple of days at Portmerion before heading to Angelsey for three weeks.

I love the deep red card you used for the pretty poinsettia and matching layer behind the white stitched square, and the little gold berries look great in the centre of the flower. x
A fabulous cas card Kath. I would really struggle with a card as cas as this but you always master it. Thank you for joining in at As You Like It.
Beautifully CAS as always and a very elegant design.
Thanks for joining me at the Rudolph Days Challenge.
