What a beautiful poinsettia, Christine! Such a beautiful color! Love the black accents too!
Beautiful. Love how you colored the poinsettia. The black mat and accents make it pop. Thanks for joining us at Merry Monday.
What a beautiful image. I really like how the poinsettia isn't "face on" but is a little canted. Gorgeous coloring and really clever to use the perfect pearls for the stamens!
Thanks for sharing with us at The Merry Christmas Challenge Blog!

This poinsettia is so pretty Christine! I can see why you love it. Wonderful no-line watercolouring ... the shades of pink are beautiful. Great idea to stamp over the top at the end to bring back come of the finer details. Love the pink paired with black and white ... very elegant and classy. xx
Beautiful, Christine. Love the non-red pink colour 😉 and the stamens. So creative. I can’t believe the stamp is Recollections. Great buy.
so very pretty!!
Such a pretty card, Christine! Your poinsettia is just beautiful and makes a really elegant card. I can understand why you love it so much! Thanks so much for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week!
Beautiful little poinsettia! Love the striped edge and the black border - they set off the poinsettia perfectly.
Wow, Christine, you are a master of watercolouring! That Poinsettia looks as if one could reach out and touch it. Wonderful shading and colouring! This is a lovely combination of elegance and art. Love it! Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

OUtstanding job painting that poinsettia. Those leaves look so velvety and love the shading on the leaves too.
Everything about your pointsettia card is wonderful. Your watercolouring blend is perfect and I really like that you re-stamped the image with the waterproof as it brings it to life. Great sentiment too! Thanks for sharing at the Watercooler Wednesday All About Christmas Challenge this week.
I love your poinsettia! Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges!

Gorgeous shade of pink for this lovely poinsettia and the excellent watercoloring. Love the black stripe border, as it makes the card just pop! TFS
This card is so lovely...and in that gorgeous pink and with a different sentiment can be used all year around :-)
I have this set too, and I love what you’ve done with it! Thanks for joining us for the March “flowers” challenge at CCAYR! 😀

An amazing card! I love all the shadows, they perfectly reflect the extra dimension to the card. At first I thought you used several layers of flower :-) Great coloring and beautiful elegant design.
