In this tutorial the name Seal is referring to the use of the new Stampin' Seal

 

Cut a piece of Poppy Parade CS 8½" x 5½" - score at 4¼"

Fold CS in half and score with Bone Folder

Cut piece of Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper 5¼" x 4"

Add ribbon across the front of the card and and tape the tails to the back

Cut a piece of Whisper White 4" x 3½" and Stamp Greeting

Using the Stitched Nested Label die, run your greeting thru the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Add Dimensionals to the back and adhere to the card

Cut a section of the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper containing a Poinsettia

 

   Using the Blending Brush, sponge the poinsettia piece

    

 Fussy cut the poinsettia, add a dimensional to the back and adhere to the card

 

Using a scrap of Gold Foil, die cut 2 flower sprays and the poinsettia center buds

Using glue dots adhere the flower sprays behind the greeting 

    and the flower buds to the poinsettia

Add Gilded Gems to put the final embellishments on the cad.
