I wanted something simple and remembered a sweet little poinsettia die from a Sunny Studio set. As I dug through the stash I came across a TE mini slimline window die and went from there! Super quick and easy - die cut flowers (one bigger than the other two - hard to see, maybe) and window panel, assembled, added sentiment strip - done!! Note - the littlest flower layer was cut with a freebie die Mendi sent with a Sunny order - it perfectly matches this set so I keep them together!
When cutting the window panel, a trio of diamonds remained. Decided these would look great across a card with a poinsettia atop each diamond. The centers of these flowers were leftover from some die that cut little circles - no idea which...
I made this card before I got a good look at the CAS Christmas reminder post but I see the talented Cathy did an amazing trio of poinsettia in a vertical line. Just love the little Poppystamps die she used - I feel some enabling coming on....
I'm also adding my cards to Dawn's All Occasion Challenge at Watercooler Wednesday. Thanks to all for the fun challenge and to you for visiting!

So clever Linda!! Two wonderful cards!!! Thanks so much for sharing at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge! Stay safe! :)
Both poinsettia cards are so pretty, Linda! I love how you arranged the flowers using the 3 windows! So clever! And you didn't waste anything, and made the second card! The poinsettias pop against the white diamond panels beautifully. I'm so glad that you made it to the cut-off time and shared the first card with us at CAS Christmas! Thank you! Hideko xx
