Winter Poinsettia – by Deb Saaranen

Good morning to all!

Deb is starting our day off with a lovely, clean and simple Christmas card featuring our Winter Poinsettia Floral Cluster. It is never too early to think about Christmas cards. For many of us Christmas cards are a year-round project. This is a lovely card to work on at your leisure, coloring up your images as time permits, allowing you to then quickly put your cards together closer to the season when needed. Take a look at this beauty:

I think Deb’s watercolored poinsettia cluster is absolutely gorgeous!

She stamped it in a lighter ink as opposed to black (to give it an overall softer look) onto watercolor paper and then watercolored the image using distress inks. The popped up die cut image is then further accented with the small twiggy green sprigs cut from the same die set. I’m {{{ loving }}} that addition.

Deb created several layers of elevation which really makes this card POP!

However, if you wanted a card flatter for mailing, this would be equally as lovely done with just the base card.

And the Winter Poinsettia stamp set has many sentiment options available, making it fun to switch them up.

WOW! Such a super gorgeous card!

Floral Cluster Winter Poinsettia by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps – NEW!

I want to point out that there are four (4) stamp sets in our Floral Cluster Series. Each stamp set features a different floral cluster, but the unique aspect of this release is that EACH cluster can be cut using the SAME die. So all four stamp sets require only ONE die set! HOW COOL IS THAT! We are pretty excited about this. Its a great way to keep things simple and to save some money at the same time.

These are all four of the stamp sets in our Floral Cluster Series.

And below is the one die set that works with all four of these stamp sets!!!

Floral Cluster & Sprigs die set by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps – NEW!

This set not only cuts out the floral clusters from all four stamp sets in our Floral Cluster Series, but it also offers some fun smaller sprigs to add some additional greenery to your projects. Note how much interest the green twiggy sprigs add to Deb’s card today.
