Cocoa & Crafts A Candlelit Poinsettia

Hello there! How are you? It's been a crazy, busy, exciting couple of weeks here. If you've read my latest posts you know that my daughter and grandson are staying with us for a bit while our son-in-love is deployed and that baby #2 was due early December. I'm so happy to announce that little Olivia Grace made a grand arrival December 7th. Both her and mommy are doing great, and we're settling into a nice routine here. Well, as routine as any infant allows. I may be super biased, but I think she's the most adorable thing ever! 

As much as I'd love to gush over my granddaughter, I should probably get to today's project. It's our last round of Cocoa & Crafts for this year, and unlike most months, I'm going to post all 4 projects back-to-back this week so you can get your cards made and ready to send out in time for Christmas. 

Today's card is a little different than most. It pops up, tent-style, and allows a battery operated tealight to be placed inside to light up the flower image. It's simple, pretty and elegant. I like that combo. 

I forgot to mention in the video that I used the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend to color one of the larger rhinestones. Love that I can have pretty gems in any color I want. 

Here are the measurements: 

• Card base 11 x 4 1/4
• Scored at 3 5/8 x 7 3/8 along the 11 inch side
• 2 white panels 3 3/8 x 4 
• Sentiment Panel 1 x 4

And here's the supply list:

And I'll leave you with a little sunshine for your day:

I hope you have enjoyed today's post. If you decide to place an order through my website, if your order is less than $150, please use the Host Code listed above (on the right), so I can send you an extra free goody. If your order is over $150 don't use the code as you get to pick out the goody yourself when you place your order. 

Till next time...

God's love and blessings!
