Welcome to this weeks Paper Craft Crew Challenge!
Challenge # PCC395 is a horizontal sketch. I always like a sketch that involves squares. Specifically stitched squares. If you look at this photo closely you will see that I used my Stitched Shapes Dies to cut both of my squares. I did emboss the Whisper White Cardstock with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder before I die cut the Square. The other square comes from the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper. I also used that DSP for the Envelope Flap Cover. The Poinsettia Dies have 3 layering sizes to create this beautiful flower. The dies for the flower come in 2 parts, one to cut the flower outline and one to emboss the inside of the flower. I like to tape my dies together to cut and emboss at the same time. You can see that even after I have used my bone folder to curl the petals there is still a lovely embossed petal. The Poinsettia and the fish tailed banner are Red Velvet Cardstock. I die cut the Holly Leaf from Garden Green Cardstock and the Berry Sprig is die cut from the Poinsettia Place DSP. My Card Base is Garden Green Cardstock. The Card Front is from the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper (it is a Flocked Vellum) that I backed with Whisper White Cardstock.
In the photo it looks like is is embossed, but in person it is gorgeous. The sentiment is from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set.

Jan, this card is a stunner! That red velvet card stock is just gorgeous! The curling detail just makes that flower pop off the card. Just beautiful!
