Super quick post tonight to share another of the cards I created for the Papertrey Ink release. This time, I was using the new Year of Flowers: Poinsettias. I wanted the large poinsettia to really be the focus of my card so I went very clean and simple with my design. I colored the image with copic markers. Then, I added a little texture with the Holly Jolly impression plate and a little stitching.
Have a great Monday!
Niki
Simply lovely!!!
