The plaid poinsettia has two layers of the red plaid from Old World Winter and the middle layer is from Pink & Main's Jolly. I used the AJVD slimline set for my trio of rectangles; the plaid one is from Lawn Fawn's Winter plaid. Sorry if the photo is bad; it is VERY gloomy & rainy today!
If you checked out my previous slimline poinsettia card, I'd be interested to know which one you prefer. The Hero Arts poinsettia die I used is a fave and I use it often every year - first year for mini slimlines though!
Julia, one of the CAS Christmas DT, wonders how the Christmas card production goes. Well, with this one I'm up to 47 so better than one per week but nowhere near where I should be! Thank goodness for CAS Christmas to inspire me!!
That's it for today! Thanks for stopping and happy crafting!!

Linda, what a great way to add plaid to your Christmas card. I love the country look of this card.
your plaid poinsettia looks wonderful, I haven't played with the mini slimline cards style yet but it looks interesting :) Thanks for joining us at CAS Christmas ♥
Love your plaid poinsettia. Great CAS card.
Love your idea to use plaid to make your flower, Linda - why haven't I thought of that? Must go check out my dies and stamps to see how my goodies will work .......
Love your choices! You're doing great things with the mini slimline set and those Sentiment Strips!
Love that fun plaid poinsettia, Linda!
What a wonderful and fresh idea to use plaid for a poinsettia, Linda! I love it and it's so pretty!
You've already made 47 Christmas cards, and that's nowhere near where you should be? You have so many friends!!
Thank you for sharing this beauty with us at CAS Christmas!

So clever, I love it! Love the plaid poinsettia!
Thanks for your visit… I love this one, I have to say it caught my eye… I may have to try a plaid poinsettia!
Awesome!
OMG I love it!!!
So charmingly pretty! This festive make has me wishing that plaid poinsettias (or any flower in plaid, come to think of it) were real. Alas, such is not the case, but happily, as you've demonstrated here, we can create a whole greenhouse's worth of them, if so desired, with our stashes.

Don't think I've ever made a plaid poinsettia--really fun look! I have you to thank for "making" me get the HA poinsettia which is really a wonderful die!
LOVE your plaid poinsettia Linda!! It's so pretty and looks great with the great framed sentiment. Wonderful CAS design! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Christmas!
I have only managed to make about 36 Christmas cards so far this year ... and they are all for donation. I still need to make about 60 for me to mail out to family and friends. Better get a move on!! xx
