Poinsettias tutorial and Christams ornaments

Hello everyone
Today I want to show you how to prepare poinsettia flowers using WOC poinsettia blooms and red stamens.

For one flower we need 3 blooms. I placed every bloom on the embossing mat and embossed the center with the stylus tool.

Then I glued together 3 blooms.

I pierced the center of the flower with a paper piercer.

I pulled the stamens through the hole, adding some glue.

When the glue was dry, I painted slightly all flowers with white acrylic paint.
The same way you can make small poinsettia flowers using small poinsettia blooms.

I used my poinsettias to decorate Christmas ornaments.

Thank you for stopping by!
Have a great Thursday :)

Christmas Stocking

Whilst browsing Pinterest last week, and losing hours and hours – sheesh that place is dangerous, I saw some cute Christmas stocking cards.  I had an idea to make an ornament instead of a card to give to special friends so they can use it again and again.  A few hours later this is what I came up with.  I love it!

I downloaded a few free templates off the internet and cobbled/adapted them till I got the shape I liked.  It roughly measures 7.5” at the longest points.  I cut this from mountboard, my local picture framers so very kindly donated some to the cause.  Then the fun began.  Out came the Christmas papers and embellies.

The embellies are mostly from Wild Orchid Crafts – Poinsettia large, pulled apart then spritzed with pearl shimmer then edges inked then reassembled with strong glue and finished off with a flatback pearls in a gold flower; small poinsettia I did the same but finished off with a gold finding and pearl.  Holly leaves, berries from the gold Christmas berry spray, and open roses in 20mm, 15mm and 10mm.  I also added a couple of gold bells to the ribbon bow and finished off with a wooden sentiment that I painted with gold paint then slathered in gold stickles.

I finished off the front with a couple of sentiment tags.

And a look at the back, where I have added a sentiment and left space to address the “card”.  I really had fun making this and have quite a few ideas for more using different shapes. 

 

Merry Christmas

Hi WOC Friends - are you all gearing up for the festive holidays?!  Today I have a holiday card to share with you all!

Image was cut out and popped up onto a paper doilie.  The top of the ornament and tag have been glitzed with 100 grit Silver German Glass Glitter....LOVE the sparkle to this glitter! 

Wild Orchid Crafts flower arrangement consists of a large poinsettia (edged with 100 grit Silver German Glass Glitter) topped with a 30mm Wild Rose, small poinsettias topped withSweetheart Blossoms (edged with 100 grit Red German Glass Glitter), 25mm Silver Padded Snowflakes, Gypsophilas, 8mm Semi-opened Rosebuds, White Stamens, and Red Holly Berries.  Arrangement was then finished off with two Pearl Swirls and some May Arts Ribbon.

Bow was accented with a 8mm Semi-opened Rosebud, and mini ringing bell.  These bells are so adorable, I {heart} them to pieces!  

Bottom right corner was accented with some gorgeous large Moonstone Brads.  

I hope you have enjoyed my creation and you all have a fabulous holiday season with your loved ones!
