~ Precious Poinsettia ~

This week starts our The 12 Days of a Christmas! If you know me, CAS is not my usual fare, but I did my level best to keep it simple!
There are so many possibilities these days with all the dies and tools for papercrafting. I made the gorgeous poinsettia die the headliner on this card. Poinsettias are a personal favorite as they remind me of my mother. She had dozens of them in her home for the holidays. They also remind me of my mother-in-law, who kept one poinsettia plant alive for several years. Years!

Very pretty with the poinsettia and bow.
Beautiful card, and I love the design of it…I find CAS hard to do too, start out that way but I always think it needs more…LOL!
Very pretty Christmas card!
Love your card. The patterned paper and poinsettia are so pretty.
