Happy Friday, Friends! Irene here with a Poinsettia Christmas card. This project features the Blooming Noel Stamp set and the Evergreen Elegance. Let's get started!
I wanted my card to resemble a gift and began by cutting burlap paper to A2-size. I also trimmed red textured card stock to .5 inch x 4.25 and .5 inch by 5.5 inch. I stamped the Blooming Noel layers in black ink and colored the images with Copic Markers. I used YG61, YG17, and G46 to color the leaves. I used the lightest color (YG61) to color the entire leaf area, YG17 as the medium shade, and G46 to add the darker shading.
I used R46 and R43 to color the red of the poinsettia. I first colored in R43 and purposely left white areas in my coloring. I then used R46 to add richer color and shading. Next, I used a white gel pen to add highlights.
I stamped a leaf and the berries images from the Evergreen Elegance stamp and colored it like the poinsettia. I also added gel pen highlights and used glossy accents to add shine. I used "Joy" from the Flora Wreath stamp set for the sentiment.
I added the burlap paper to heavy card stock for added stability. Then I added the red strips and crossed them to be the ribbon of my "gift." I added the leaf directly to the panel using liquid glue. Next, I added the larger red piece with foam tape and tucked the Evergreen Elegance leaf and berries behind it. Next, I added the smaller red image with foam tape for extra dimension. Finally, I added "Joy" to the lower right corner of my card with foam tape.
And Done! I hope you enjoyed this project. Thanks for reading along! Have a fabulous weekend!

I never imagined I’d be writing this story. For months, I carried the heavy weight of regret, shame, and financial devastation after falling victim to an online crypto scam. I had invested my hard-earned Bitcoin, worth around $523,000, into a platform that promised high returns and constant growth. At first, everything looked like real slick websites, convincing dashboards, and even a so-called account manager who reassured me at every step. But when it came time to withdraw my funds, everything changed. My requests were ignored, excuses piled up, and eventually, I was completely locked out of my account, I was devastated. Not only was I staring at a massive financial loss, but I also felt ashamed for being deceived. Friends and even family members didn’t quite understand how sophisticated these scams can be. I thought I had lost everything until I discovered Dexdert Net Recovery. At first, I was skeptical. The internet is full of fake recovery services that promise miracles but deliver nothing. But after researching their track record and reading real testimonials, I decided to take a chance. From the very first consultation, the team at Dexdert Net Recovery treated me with respect, empathy, and professionalism. What impressed me most was how transparent they were. I received constant updates about the progress and explanations I could actually understand. Weeks later, something I never thought possible happened. Dexdert Net Recovery successfully reclaimed my stolen Bitcoin. The moment I saw the recovered funds safely back in my wallet, I broke down in tears of relief. After months of hopelessness, I finally had my money back: $523,000 worth of Bitcoin that I thought was gone forever. I can honestly say that Dexdert Net Recovery gave me a second chance. Without Dexdert Net Recovery, I would still be living with regret and financial ruin. They turned what seemed like an impossible situation into a story of justice and recovery.

My journey into cryptocurrency began with optimism but ended in a nightmare. Like many others, I was lured by the promise of high returns from an elite investment platform.The website looked professional, complete with glossy dashboards and testimonials from satisfied clients.Trusting their claims,I invested $50,000 worth of Tether USDT, only to watch the platform vanish overnight along with my life savings.The platform, which mimicked legitimate exchanges like Crypto.com, initially allowed small withdrawals to build trust. But when I tried to access the bulk of my funds, excuses piled up: tax fees,verification delays, and finally, silence. Panicked, I realized I’d fallen victim to a pig-butchering scam, a scheme where fraudsters groom victims before stealing their crypto . Desperate, I scoured forums and found Washington Recovery Pro, a firm praised for tracking stolen crypto. Their testimonials stood out—like Leonadopeterson69, who recovered $250,000 in Bitcoin after a similar scam . Skeptical but hopeful, I contacted them.From the very first interaction, their professionalism stood out. They took time to understand my case, carefully analyzed the wallet trails, and began tracing the movement of my lost Tether coins. Their expertise in blockchain forensics and cyber investigation was beyond impressive.After weeks of relentless effort, they recovered 90% of my USDT. The remaining 10% was lost to mixer services, but their success far exceeded my expectations.Thanks to Washington Recovery Pro for saving me from financial ruin… Contact Handle Via

I was devastated. Months ago, I’d poured my life savings of $415,800 into what seemed like a golden crypto investment opportunity. Promises of massive returns lured me in, but it was a scam. The platform vanished, along with my money. Desperate, I turned to online recovery experts. The first one charged $5,000 upfront, claiming blockchain magic, nothing. The second, posing as a hacker, took $3,200 and ghosted. A third firm drained another $4,500 with fake progress reports. I was out even more, spiraling into debt and despair. Rock bottom hit when a friend mentioned Alpha Spy Nest, a forensics recovery expert team specializing in crypto scams. Skeptical but with nothing to lose, I reached out. Unlike the fakes, their investigator listened patiently to my story, reviewing transaction logs and wallet addresses I provided. Using advanced blockchain forensics, they traced the funds through obfuscated wallets and mixer services. They explained how scammers laundered via DeFi protocols, but their tools, custom algorithms and network analysis pinpointed the trail to a shady exchange in Eastern Europe. Collaborating with international authorities, they froze suspect accounts and initiated legal recovery. Days of tense updates followed: subpoenas, digital evidence compilation, and negotiations. Then, the breakthrough, $395,200 wired back to my secure account. Alpha Spy Nest’s transparency and expertise restored not just my savings, but my faith. If you’re scammed, skip the fraudsters. Alpha Spy Nest is the real deal, they turned my nightmare into redemption. Contacts information below:
