I love making Christmas Cards, I think its the colours, the glitter and the gorgeous papers.  The poinsettia below has been created using the Build a Flower series #1 from Cheery Lynn.  I distressed with Fired Brick Distress inks (nice and messy) then added the centres with have been glittered.  Behind the flower I have used the Lacey Christmas Ornaments which have also been glittered.. 

Most of my cards are 14.5cm x 14.5 cm (5/6inch Square)

for this card I cut my card size then cropped about 7cm off the bottom of the front of my card, I then die cut the Frills and Hearts border to create a lovely decorative edge.
