How is this for a Clean and Simple card? I made the flowers using Sue Wilson's Festive Poinsettia Garland. I did some sponging on red card stock, shaped them and glued two of the flowers together and filled the center with prills. Then I placed them on the Memory Box Poinsettia Band and put some Nuvo Drops on the berries of the die. I embossed a piece of white card with a Crafter's Companion 3D embosiing folder and put the whole thing on a red card stock base. A sentiment from Elizabeth Crafts finished the design.

Wowzer! I need to catch my breath! This is so stunning and dazzling! Love the dark red on the white for starters. That embossing folder is grand and really makes a statement, but still the flowers take the stage. I would have a hard time parting with this one. You are one fantastic card maker my friend. I sure get inspired when I see your radiant cards.
