Bright Poinsettias

I LOVE the Pinkfresh Studio Poinsettia Frame set!  I've been using it as is for letterpressing and hotfoiling but also masking off part of it to make a single border on a card.  I'll show those another day.

For this one I used the below inks.  You'll find the rest of the products listed at the bottom of this post.

• Catherine Pooler Oh Boy!, Something Borrowed, Bellini, Coral Cabana, Mandarin Spice, Buttercream, Lime Rickey, and Grass Skirt

I'm entering this in Jingle Belles Banner Holiday.  Isn't that banner gorgeous?

For my second card I hot foiled in gold then used shades of pink and green on the blossoms.  So very soft and pretty with just a bit of bling.

• Catherine Pooler Cotton Candy, It's a Girl, Be Mine, Buttercream, Tiara, Melon Ice, Lime Rickey, and Oh Boy!

I'm entering this one in Tic Tac Toe #261 (Poinsettia-Free-Stencil) and Stencil Fun November 2024 Challenge Make It Sparkle or Shine (optional).

The leftover hot foil I then reverse hot-foiled onto glossy photo paper that you get with printers.  Or at least back in the day it would come with printers.  I was so impressed with hot well the glossy paper did and will use it in the future for reverse hot foiling for sure.
