That is so gorgeous. I have been wanting to do a poinsettia theme for my Christmas cards for the last couple years. This is inspirational. Keep up the great work.

Hi Sharon,
Thank you for the lovely comment. To make this card start with a 12 x 6 piece of card stock. Scor at the 2 1/2″ mark down 2 inches. Next scor at the 4 1/2″ mark down 4 inches. Next, flip the card stock over and scor at the 6 1/2″ mark down 4 inches and finally scor at the 8 1/2″ mark down 2 inches. The last scor will be the full 6″ at the 10 1/2″ mark and another scor line about 1/8″ to the right of your lst line to allow the card to fold. You will then need to do 2 cuts, starting at the bottom of the 2 1/2″ scor line across to the 6 1/2″ scor line and another one from the bottom of the 4 1/2″ line to the 8 1/2″ line. Finally you will need to attach a 6″ x 5 1/2″ piece of card stock to the right of the card for the front.
Here is a template (not to scale) so you can see what I am trying to explain.
Hope this helps!
