Curtain Call Act 2

DSCF4793

It is 12:15 in the morning and this is what happens when I drink regular coffee after dinner---I cannot sleep!  So I stamped, of course!  I was excited to learn that Stacey chose my card as one of her Show Stoppers for the Curtain Call Act 1, so I decided to play her second color challenge as well as use Karen's sketch for this week:

I am trying to make some samples with my new SU stamps, so I pulled out Spotlight on Christmas to make a little card:

Pretty simple--two layers on the poinsettia; I added some Gelly Roll sparkle to the center and the dots under the sentiment, although it's impossible to see here!  I love this color combo, I am sure I'll be using it again!

Congratulations on having your card chosen! The colors are exceptionally beautiful together. BTW, your previous post (the breadbox) is awesome!! So much nicer than just wrapping in cellophane!
