Holiday Blessings with Firecracker Designs

This is my final post as a Guest DT member for Firecracker Designs by Pamela. *sniff* I would like to thank Pamela and Shelly for inviting me as a guest designer. I enjoyed my month on the team with these wonderfully supportive ladies.

For my final project I made another Christmas card for OWH. These poinsettias are so pretty. I printed them out twice and layered for some dimension. I love the texture on this card with the flocked papers & the lace. I used metallic gold paper under the poinsettias and the label/sentiment. You really can't see it too well in the photo but it looks really nice IRL.


Remember that Pamela is closing the store in December. If you have your eye on something, you may want to get it now before it is sold out. The coupon code BYEBYEFDC is good for 10% of your order before 10-1-10. You can keep track of all the information on sales, discounts and the store closing HERE.





Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful week end.
