I have another Christmas card to share for the 2013 Caring Hearts Card Drive and I am also entering this card into the following challenges:
Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge - 'Photo Inspiration’
Clearly Besotted Challenge - ‘Christmas'
CAS-ual Friday’s Challenge - CFC 119 ‘Embossing’
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - ‘Keep it Clean and Simple’
I wanted some sparkle on the poinsettia leaves, so I used my Spica glitter pen. I think it’s still hard to see, but it looks pretty IRL. Here is a close up:

I am so glad you posted a close up of the poinsettia, it is beautiful. Love those clear baubles in the center. It is just lovely in white, so calming. Like the stillness after a winter snow.
