This card has a couple of layers on it but will still go thru the mail without extra postage. I added a little copper foil banner and some designer paper. For the inside I added the simple sentiment of Merry Christmas.

I was so surprised how these two cards turned out.  They are so beautiful the pictures of them do not do them justice.

I die cut the poinsettias and leaves  out of velvet paper and used some vellum in the background. I then added a small strip of silver along both sides to add a little bling. For the center of the flowers I used a little bit of yellow stickles glue.  On the pink card I used some pearls near the Merry Christmas. I used two different sentiments on these cards.  You can see the red one pretty good but the pink one says,”May your season be filled with all the wonder and blessings of Christmas.”

To mail these cards so that the flower does not become a crushed mess I would add a small piece of cardboard on top of the flower.

Building the poinsettia for this card was a little challenging but still doable.

The poinsettia has three different size layers to the flower that is stacked one on top of the other.  For the leaves I just tucked them in behind the flower.

I added some gold ribbon on the base of the card and a Merry Christmas sentiment on the front.  For  the inside I added a sentiment “May the spirit of Peace gently fill your heart and home  in this most wonderful time of year.”

I had to make the card so that it wouldn’t get crushed when it is mailed, so by adding a layer of cardboard on top of the card will prevent this from happening.
