I have oodles of Poinsettia stamps, but thought I would go in a different direction, and maybe I'm going out on a limb here, but I'm going to call these Beautiful Berries: Winter a Winter Flower...
I hadn't used this lovely set from Papertrey Ink in quite awhile and inked up the greenery in Ocean Tides and Pine Feather inks and the berries in Autumn Rose and Scarlett Jewel inks. The sentiment is part of the Beautiful Berries: Winter stamp set and I inked that up in the Pine Feather ink.
I used a Spellbinders Hemstitched die to add a little interest and frame around the berry branch, and then layered a piece of Pine Feather cs behind the hemstitched panel before adhering to a white card base, and then finished with a few clear sequins. Quick and easy and very CAS!
You can check out what the DT has to show for inspiration and then play along right HERE. This challenge is open till the 24th.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

Another beautiful CAS creation my friend! I love how the hemstitch die lets a little color show through but still adds to the CAS style. Your perfectly stamped berries are delightful!
Beautiful!! LOVE the colours and so very elegant!
a wonderful choice for winter flowers Marcia - so pretty with the shaded berries and lovely hemstitched edging on your frame! xx
Maybe not actually a flower but it is a winter plant, Marcia, and is so pretty stamped in those colors. I have the Spring and Autumn berries. Maybe we can make a trade when we craft together next time. Unless you have those too. ;)
Wow Marcia - what a beautiful spray and I love the green peeking through the hemstitch!!
I hadn't seen that stamp before - I love it. Beautifully coloured and framed.
Simply beautiful berries on greenery Christmas Card, Marcia. TFS Hugs...
