Poinsettia Petals Bundle Christmas Card

I used the Poinsettia Petals bundle (Poinsettia Petals stamp set and Poinsettia Dies) to make today’s Christmas card. I also used the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper and Real Red Sheer Ribbon, all from the Poinsettia Place Suite Collection. A few Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels add a sparkly little touch.
