We're hopping along to showcase Holiday Tags at STAMPlorations.
I stamped my STAMPlorations Holiday Sketches Christmas Flower in black ink on red cardstock and then used a Red Spectrum Noir marker to add a bit of depth to the shaded portions of the bloom. I dotted the center with a gold Kirarina Wink pen. I fussy-cut the flower and attached it to my tag, cut from gold metallic designer cardstock.
The sentiment is from STAMPlorations Holiday Hexagons. I tried stamping it in Golden Glitz Delicata ink, but there wasn't enough contrast. So without cleaning the stamp, I inked it with dark brown ink, which produced a gorgeous shimmery brown result (happy accident). I finished with golden glittery enamel dots and a brown ribbon.
I love how that gold CS makes the poinsettia pop and give your tag an overall vintage feel, Stephanie! Those glittered enamel dots are the perfect embellishment too!

Beautiful, Stephanie! Great photo too! I like your flower frog (is that what it is?) as a card holder. Nice!

The gold and red are a gorgeous combination! I've never thought to stamp the poinsettia on red cardstock; thanks for the inspiration!
