Three Versions of the Same Poinsettia

The suggested theme for the SCS Christmas Card Challenge for March was poinsettias. I do a quota of 10 each month and I didn't get my March quota finished so sat down today and did three variations using the same stamp.

And the April Christmas Cards All Year Round challenge is flowers.

For each variation, I stamped and heat embossed the poinsettia on watercolour paper, but used different colours each time.  I used Inktense watercolour pencils to colour all three versions, fussy cut all three, and mounted them on fun foam but on different colours or styles of cardbases. This one is on a red panel die cut with a stitched square and then on a square white cardbase.

This one is stamped and heat embossed in gold.  It is on a red cardbase, with a gold die cut sentiment, and some gold gemstones in the centre of the flower.

Next up is one stamped in black ink and heat embossed in clear ep, on a white cardbase, with a stamped and heat embossed sentiment.

And lastly, stamped and heat embossed in white, on a red panel die cut with a stitched square and then on a square white cardbase.

Interesting to see how the different colours of ink and embossing powder change the look!
