5¼ x 5¼" card by Debbie Seyer

Debbie wanted to create a card with ALOT of dimension! By cutting apart several of the poinsettia flowers from the Poinsettia Border Grand, applying clear embossing powder for shine and layering them, she accomplished just that. To add a little something extra, she embossed the Labels Nine die on the white background to frame the gorgeous poinsettia flower.
