Joyous Noel with Heartfelt Creations

Good morning everyone and welcome to Heartfelt Creations Wednesday.  Hope everyones week is going great, for me so far so good.  Today we have a special treat for you, we are doing a joint blog hop with Scrap-Mart, hop over to their blog and follow the hop for a chance to win some wonderful prizes, make sure to leave a comment on the Heartfelt Creations blog for a chance to win a $25.00 gift certificate.  Now for my project, I have been playing with the new dies and I just love the design on this one, after I cut the swirls at the top of the front panels and embossed them with this embossing folder from Cuttlebug.  
Here is the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment with black ink, I then stamped the poinsettias and swirls with embossing ink and heat embossed with detail white embossing powder.  Once embossed I applied some distress ink.
For the Poinsettia I used the gorgeous stamps from the "Regal Poinsettia" collection and cut with the coordinating dies.
Make sure to stop by the HFC Blog so you can see all the gorgeous creations by my DT sisters.  Thank you for you visit, hope you come back soon.
