It' a few weeks since I entered the challenge at 52 CCT but I've managed this one.
The poinsettia was made from several die cuts on 90gsm copier paper I have have some bits left after experimenting. I then stamped the layers and coloured with my Spectrum Noir pens before misting with water scrunching then flattening the paper and leavint it to dry.Even though the finished flower looks delicate it is sturdy.
