I chose to use the already colored poinsettia as it was so perfect with the beautiful pattern paper. And, I tried to find a green card stock that would work with the same colors and that was what I used for the card base. The sentiment is one from Sparkle N Sprinkle which is a company that is no longer in business. But the font on that sentiment looked so beautiful to me and I thought it the perfect one for this card.
This was my afternoon activity today. I am happy with the way it turned out. I may have to make several with this poinsettia now as not having to color really helped make it go together a lot faster. Although fussy cutting was a bit challenging for me.
Well, I wish all a happy weekend. And, I hope you can get in some crafty fun too. Thanks for all the lovely comments you leave me too.
God bless,
Verna

A beautiful card, Verna. The lovely poinsettias are so striking. xx
Hi Verna! Love your card. Lots of Poinsettias! Glad you are enjoying them. So great seeing this in our challenge .

Beautiful poinsettias and another relatively quick card! With the way my printer uses ink I cannot do the papers or the pre-colored digis. It would be nice sometimes!
This poinsettia card is beautiful. Love the layers of the flowers and also your lovely sentiment.
I have been making a lot of precoloured image cards and also diecut cards, lately. It is easier on me as there is not as much sitting with no colouring taken into account.
I may look up this set as the colours are gorgeous on these flowers!
Thanks for taking part in the October Rudolph Days
Challenge.
So beautiful, Verna! It’s gorgeously layered and wonderfully coordinated!!
What a lovely card Verna - love that you have the poinsettias in red - they are so vibrant, and to have the matching paper is really a bonus.
Blessings

Erna, I love your beautiful and classic Christmas cards. We leave this morning for warmer weather and I have my box of completed Christmas cards with me. Yes, they are done, but I am seeing so many beautiful cards like yours, that I may do a few more.
Hey, Verna. I had to come over and see the beautiful cards you made for Card For Little Hearts. They were great! So sweet. [Bunny]`
Gorgeous make, Verna! The poinsettias and the background paper are super together. The fussy cutting looks great too.
Well this is one gorgeous pre-coloured image, Verna! Will definitely be checking it out. Such a gorgeous poinsettia and card. I LOVE using precoloured images - they make life so much easier - sometimes I just want to make a card and don't have time to colour. Beautiful card!
Love your card! I having been eyeing that digital set...may have to get after seeing your card!
Very pretty and such a perfectly designed card! It really is beautiful.
I am happy too with your afternoon activity. It is just gorgeous and made a beautiful Christmas card. Cool way to spend your afternoon. Gorgeous poinsettias and the leaves look so real.

Hi Verna - so sorry I had to delete my first comment - I made a mistake!

Beautiful card from your "must have" digital! Your fuss-cutting looks marvelous to me!
