Merry Monday #85 - Noel!

Hello, Happy Tuesday,
It's time for another Merry Monday Challenge, and this week we challenge you to use all White or all Ivory with Brown or Kraft for the Sentiment or Accents. I made this card first and then realised that two of the other DT had used poinsettia flowers so I made another card.  I have a few firsts on this card, first time using the Joyful Christmas Stamp Set, the Pretty Print Embossing Folder, the Noel Stamp and the Creamy Pearls.  I stamped the Poinsettia on the very last bits of Vellum I have and cut the flower out and layered the centre.  When I cut the flower I cut further into it so I could get some extra dimension and I spritzed it with some Snow Frost Smooch Spritz. I embossed the Whisper White Mat with the Sizzix Pretty Print embossing folder and sponged around the Noel image. Hope you like it!
 
Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Joyful Christmas, Simon Says Small Folded Banners Holiday Stamp Set
Card: Whisper White, Vellum
Ink: Versamark, Crumb Cake
Finishing Touches: Organdie Ribbon, Pearls, Snow Frost Smooch Spritz
Cool Tools: Big Shot, Sizzix Pretty Prints E/Folder, Embossing Buddy, White E/Powder, Heat Tool, Large Oval Punch, Sponge, Dble Sided Tape, Dimensionals, Tombow Multi Purpose Glue
Thanks for dropping by today.
Hugs,
