CAS Poinsettia

 This is one of the quickest cards I've ever made, I must bear it in mind if I need to do some last minute "batch baking". 


The stamps are from a Creative Stamping set from a couple of years ago. I always seem to use them the same way, colouring them boldly with markers, and wanted to try something different, so I worked out where I wanted the poinsettia flower to lie then blended red ink in the area (using the Misti helped a lot with positioning). Then I stamped the image over it using Versafine Clair ink and added the sentiment. 

I am sharing this with

Loving the selective colouring with your ink blending, such a great idea for CAS cards and linear images. I have this freebie stamp set too, it's a really handy one for sure. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More, Anita x
