This stamp is from Penny Black (4208K Christmas Narative). I stamped the design with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on off white card stock and colored the design with Copic markers. After the design was colored I added some yellow glitter to the center of the Poinsettia.
At this point the layer was just a square and needed help. There was a lot of empty space in the two right hand corners so I took a chance and used a Martha Stewart snowflake punch to remove some of that space on both corners. It still needed a little something more but the square was a little too big to add another layer of gold card stock under the design so I took a Gold Leaf Pen and edged all four sides. In real life it really added the right finishing touch.
A Cuttlebug border folder was used to emboss the bottom edge of the card.
