Poinsettia Bauble

Today's card features another charity shop find. I have no idea of the brand of the bauble stamp, as it was not in it's original packaging, but is unmounted grey rubber, and if anyone recognises it, please let me know in the comments what it is! ***Edit - Thanks so much to Lynn for letting me know that it's by Creative Expressions...and is called 'Mini Floret Bauble'.*** I stamped it on to black card using Versamark Ink, then drew a 'thread' for it to hang from using my Versamark pen, before heat embossing it all using 'Metallic Gold' embossing powder from WOW. I used a couple of Cosmic Shimmers mica pigments to add some colour to the flowers and leaves, and a simple sentiment (from the 'Many Blessings' set by Hero Arts), also heat embossed in gold. I matted the embossed panel on to some gold mirror card before adding it to a white card blank.
