For my Cheery Lynn Designs post today, I was originally going to make a red and white poinsettia wreath but liked the look of the all white so much, I saved the red for another project. I began by punching out 6 white card stock flowers with my Poinsettia 2 die. Using my embossing mat and stylus tool, I dry embossed the back side of the petals to give them a bit of curl. I used dimensionals between each of the petal layers.
Look at how beautiful these flowers are in the closeup above. I add some Holly Leaves and Pine Branches to fill in the wreath. Finished size is 6" square.
