Hello Everyone!
I'm so glad you're here!
I hope you've been enjoying the Heartfelt Creations blog hop...we were so excited to create our projects and put it all together for you!
You should have arrived here from Martine's blog...if by chance you've lost your place along the way, be sure to check out the blog hop list below!
For my project I decided to go with a Christmas theme and chose to use last year's Sparkling Poinsettia Collection! I thought the foldout card design would look fabulous on a fireplace mantle done in more traditional Christmas colors!
I opted to use the 4.25" x 5.5" black card base for my creation. I thought it would look stunning paired up with the deep reds, cozy creams and bright whites in the Sparkling Poinsettia Collection!
You'll have to let me know what you think!
Here's how my project turned out...
I'll give you a few more pictures so you can get a good peek at the card opened a variety of ways!
...here's a pic of the first tier...
...opening the first tier allows you to see how the backside has been decorated as well as how the second tier has been designed...
...and as we continue folding the card out...
...you can see that I've done some stamping with some of the cling stamps found within the Sparkling Poinsettia Collection and have also used a premade card panel for the inside of the card where one would write the sentiment...
...here's a closer look at how the back panel of the card has been finished...
...you can see I have done quite a bit of glittering on this card, as well as as some flocking to give the poinsettias the feel of having been snowed on...
...and here is a peek at the card fully opened but from the back of the card...
Of course you will have noticed that I used one of the new decorative border dies to add some fancy edging to my creation! It adds such visual appeal and elegance...don't you think?
I do hope you've enjoyed what I've shared with you today!

Stamp four inkings of the Sparkling Poinsettia Cling Stamp Set, and two inkings of the leaves from the Large Sparkling Poinsettia Cling Stamp Set onto white card stock using black ink.
