Festive Poinsettia at Alex Syberia Designs ig hop

Hi crafty friends!

The brand new "Christmas in July" release from Alex Syberia Designs in live and it is he perfect incentive to get started early on those holiday cards! With new hot foil plates, stamps, layering stencils, and dies there's sure to be something for everyone!

And after the blog hop , yesterday we had a fun IG hop so you could have another chance to win fabulous prizes.

Check my instagram profile @nicolettaporcu.design to have all the info and follow the lineup  to see all the gorgeous inspirations by the design team.

But now let me share with you the card I made for the occasion!

I used the Festive Poinsettia  clear stamps and coordinate dies. 

I started by stamping the Festive Poinsettia on a X-Press Blending paper  and I colored the flowers and leaves with Copic markers. Then I die cut it with the  coordinate dies.

Next up I worked on the background blending  the following Distress Oxide:

Worn Lipstick, Kitsch Flamingo, Tattered Rose, Festive Berries, Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough, Savaged Patina.

Once I get the color result I like I sprayed the paper with water and as it drayed I added white droplets using a brush.

As them drayed I die cut the rectangle base from the blended paper using the Nested Scalloped Frames die set

I continued  by gluing the background on a white card base and adding over   the colored poinsettia using foam pads and cutting out the protruding parts with scissors.

As a last thing I added the sentiment and some pink pearl.

I stamped and die cut it in many layers I glued together to add dimension.

Here the Copic colors I used:

Poinsettia: RV99/R89/R46/R17/R14/R12/Y28/Y26/Y23/

Leaves: BG57/BG49(BG45/BG34/BG32/BG11

Hope you like my card!

And remember to have time until midnight BST July 23rd 2023 to  join us! 

Ciao Ciao
