Hi guys, I've been having a play with the latest Poinsettia die by Lady E Designs, I've made them a couple of different ways just to show you and depending on the look you want too,
I made all three out of 0.6 Foamiran in white, from 14 Craft Bar, which I coloured with a Versa Colour ink pad in 64 Khaki,
I coloured all the petals on this one with the ink pad keeping the petals fairly flat only slightly cupping the middle a little in the middle of each petal, for both of these Poinsettias I only used two layers of the largest flower die,
I made this one the same way but I only coloured the centres with the same ink pad, I then used some Kraft coloured cardstock for the flower centres, this I sprayed lightly with a little water and slightly shaped the outer upwards and towards the middle,
This one I did with three layers again using the largest Poinsettia die and the flower centre, after colouring all the petals I then heated each petal at a time on the iron for a second or two then immediately placed it on a foam pad and pressed down in the middle of the petal with a ball tool, this makes a more cupped shape and it tends to stay raised as you've used the heat, again I used the flower middle then I simply added a pearl centre in all the flower which again came form 14 Craft Bar,
Hope you can see the difference, Lol
Hugs Liz xx
