Christmas Poinsettia with Burlap and Lace

 I've had a couple of stamped and embossed Poinsettia images on my desk for a while.  I was gifted them - just for the life of me, can't remember who it was and which company made them....  I had watercoloured one of the images with red paint and fussy cut it, So over the weekend, I took a second image and used some green paint to watercolour it and fussy cut it too. I then liberally spritzed with some Shimmer Spritz Frost.   Layered them together to make a fuller Poinsettia. 

A while back I picked up a roll of burlap that had a centre row of lace already sewn on it.   I thought it would look lovely with the poinsettia - and it did.   I had some pre-printed digital sentiments and used an Altenew die to cut one out.   So a very quick card was done with the addition of a green gem in the centre of the flower.
