and Me!

For my card today I have used Honeybee & Buzz (OMW isn’t she just the prettiest little lady!!).  The sentiment stamps are also from this new release – New Winter Postage Stamps.  These are just FAB!

I have coloured her with distress inks.

And I made the poinsettia using a Spellbinders die and pearlescent parchment paper.  I edged the petals with Walnut Stain then Platinum Stickles and popped a Flat Back Pearl in the centre of a metal bead cap.  The other flowers used are 20mm roses and 15mm roses as well as stamens and are all from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The paper is Pion Design Silent Night and the gorgeous Sparkle Edge Gold Trim (under the seam binding) is from Dies to Die For.  It’s scrummy!
