Guest Elf at Jo's Christmas Kickstart Challenge

I was delighted when Jo asked me to be one of her guest elves on her Christmas Kickstart Challenge. Got me back in my studio and geared up my mojo.

This  month's challenge is "Poinsettia & Posies".


I used my new SSS Holiday Sprigs Stamp, Die and Stencil set. I love the light fresh feel to these poinsettias.

The frame has "floating" leaves layered on a background of stenciled circles. 


I tucked one poinsettia behind the frame, and the other is popped on top with foam to give dimension.


I used glossy accents on the berries and centre of the flowers. The sentiment is from Penny Black.


Looking forward to seeing what you create.

    I love that this is a very 'clean' and comtemporary look while still being classic and festive. Thanks for joining in at Inkspirational.
