Instructions: Card size is 5 1/2 x 4 1/4”. Cut red cardstock 4 1/4 x 11”, score and fold at 5 1/2 inches to create an A2 tent fold card base. Cut white cardstock 5 3/8 x 4 1/8” and emboss using a holly or other Christmas themed embossing folder. Adhere to card base using dries clear adhesive. Cut a piece of green paper from the O Holy Night paper collection 5 1/8 x 3 3/4”, distress the edges and adhere to card base using dimensional dots. Sponge the edges with glue and sprinkle with Rajni Chawla’s crystal clear glitter. Randomly sponge and glitter the design on the paper. Cut another piece of the green designer paper 5 x 4” and adhere to the inside of the card.

Cut the smaller Intricate Swirls Frame Die from white cardstock. Sponge the outer frame with dries clear and sprinkle with crystal clear glitter. Stamp the sentiment from the Festive Holiday Cling Stamp Set on the center portion of the diecut with VersaMark. Sprinkle with gold embossing powder and heat set using the Heat It tool. Adhere the outer frame to the card base using mini dimensional dots and adhere the inner frame using dimensional tape. 
Stamp the Poinsettias on red cardstock using Archival Jet Black ink and diecut using the coordinating die. Stamp the leaves on green designer paper and diecut using the coordinating die. Place the flowers and leaves in the Poinsettia shaping mold, spritz with water and run through the die cutting machine. Press the centers of the flowers down using the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. When dry, glue two petals together, adhere to the leaves, sponge with dries clear adhesive and add Rajni Chawla’s Crystal clear and glass glitter. Add dries clear to the centers and sprinkle with Heart of Gold Prills. Add red berry crystal drops to one of the holly leaves.
Make a triple loop bow from sheer red ribbon and adhere to the card base as shown. Adhere the holly leaves to the center of the bow. Adhere the poinsettias using a hot glue gun.
