I still had some of that Juniper laying on my table and since it lays so flat I had the bright idea of laying it on my scanner bed and then doing a copy of it onto card stock. So that is what I did. I then added a stamped, colored and fussy cut poinsettia cluster to it to create a pretty Christmas card design. The final touch was to add some gems and a white sheet of paper inside.
Supplies used:
Gina K. Designs Dashing set illustrated by Theresa Momber
Maker's Movement Stitched Die
Bic Marking Pens
Gina K. Designs Card Stock and Obsidian Black Amagam ink
Crafter's Companion Glue Tape Runner
Rhinestones-Unknown
I am entering this in the Mod Squad Challenge which is calling for real nature items to be used on the cards. I hope this one will be okay since I more or less took a photo of it with my scanner. At any rate I had fun making it.
I had time to create cards today which makes me happy. It was lots of fun! Thanks for stopping in and for your wonderful comments. Have a good evening!
God bless,
Verna

The best Christmas card! You are very clever and creative.
It's beautiful!! And what a great idea of scanning and printing those Juniper for the background.
Great card! This is perfect for the challenge! I use my scanner to create background paper for cards. Make sure to save in a file so you can use again. Clever use of item from nature!
Another great card using those branches!! I never would have thought to scan them!
The real juniper is a fabulous addition to the poinsettia, Verna. Love it when a little scrap of something inspires a fun creation.
Well, I'll be! I hope you saved this file because the Juniper looks absolutely wonderful with your Poinsettias. Gorgeous card, Verna!
