Doodle This Poinsettia



I really love glitter on a Christmas card! I decided to use the flower from the Doodle This stamp set to make a flower. I stamped it on two squares of white card stock and colored them with my real red marker. Next, I used my VersaMark pad to cover the flower, poured Heat n' Stick powder on top and heated it just enough to melt the powder. Then I covered it with Dazzling Diamonds glitter and heated it again. I cut it out and set it aside. I used my VersaMarker to go over the colored parts of the second flower, then repeated the same process with Heat n' Stick powder and glitter. I placed the cut-out flower on top of the other one, and attached one of my new Fire Circles Rhinestone brads in the center. I added a few squiggles of green with a marker and assembled the card.
It's hard to see in the scan, but I dry-embossed the square shape on the card front using a cardboard template and my Empressor embossing tool. Hope you like the finished card!
