My background was cream card that had been dipped into a watery mix of Tarnished Brass stain, which of course doesn't show in the photo. The poinsettia was masked before adding some stamped greenery.
My greeting was stamped and embossed, with WOW Metallic Gold Rich powder, which looks very pale in the photo, but it does have a lovely sparkle - except on dull days when you need to take a photo!!
The rest of the Design Team have some great makes on show, so please pop over to the main blog, where you will also find all the challenge details.
Thanks for calling in, have a great weekend.

I am loving the background Avril, the coppery sepia tones make a perfect backdrop for the Poinsettia.

Your make is so pretty Avril - Poinsettias are always a favorite. I have not been on-line lately but hope to do better in the New Year.
