I started by colouring the edges of a white card blank with fired brick Distress ink, then I tied a piece of red ribbon round some glitter card and attached it to the card blank. I stamped the flourishes onto white card with olive and crimson Archival ink then embossed it with a dotty Cuttlebug embossing folder, this was then matted onto some red card and attached to the glitter card. I used my Cricut to cut the red and white labels, I stamped the Merry Christmas with the crimson ink onto the white label and matted it onto the red label, then I covered it with stickles and attached it to the card when it had dried. The poinsettia was made with the Spellbinders layered poinsettia dies, I attached it to the card and added some gold beads.
