Blue Poinsettia Christmas

 Another Christmas card for my box - using another new Better Press Plate and Die set called Poinsettia Corner.  I inked the Better Press Plate with Better Press Black and colored the poinsettia spray with Copics.  

I made 6 of these in one seating - 3 with blue poinsettias and 3 with dark pink poinsettias.

This is a beautiful reminder that I have some Christmas plates in my NBUS and my Christmas stash is way too small. Love the blue poinsettias and I'm sure the pink are just as pretty!

Oooh, blue poinsettias, sis, how cool is that! This is soft and lovely and I love a corner design! I'll bet the dark pink are pretty, too. Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS and for using this week's I.D.E.A.S. Calendar and linking in the gallery to motivate others!📌Hugs, Darnell
