Simple Poinsettia Ribbon

Hello, friends!  There is a lot of focus on Christmas dies at the Dies R Us store long about this time.  Just click on the “New Arrivals” category and select any of the more recent dates to see a fabulous selection from a variety of companies.  I’ve gotten a few new Christmas dies, myself, always with the intention of using them to make simple, mail-friendly cards.  But that frequently doesn’t happen.  Today, however, I did manage it.




I used one die – Memory Box Poinsettia Ribbon – for this card.  I cut it on an angle on the designer paper, then cut it again in red and again in green.  I fit the red die cut into the negative edge of the designer paper and glued the green leaves in place.  That’s three die cuts all mixed up.  I’ll do two additional and similar cards with the leftover parts, if you get my drift.  Stamped a Power Poppy sentiment and I’ve got another Christmas card ready to go.  I figure if I do a few simple cards now and then it will allow me more time to do all that coloring I love so much.

Thanks for your time!  See you soon!
