You will need:
-a card stock base (mine is white A2 sized)
-stamps ( used Repeat Impressions "Pointsettia" and "Noel")
-a straight edge
-washi tape
-markers (I used a black sharpie to draw the lines and a red sharpie to color the flowers, a gray marker for shading and a gold paint pen for the centers)
-ink (I used versamark and gold embossing powder, but you could just use black or a colored ink if you wanted it to be even easier--I also needed a heat tool for the embossing)
I used my straight edge to draw two parallel lines down the length of my paper with the black marker.
I adhered a strip of washi tape to each of the lines to create a mask. Then I stamped my poinsettia image several times within the "frame".I removed the tape and colored the images.
Then I stamped and embossed the sentiment and added gold paint pen to the center of the flowers (I did this after stamping my sentiment so I wouldn't smear any of the gold paint.) I added two YNS red gumdrops and the card is finished!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
