This plaid poinsettia card illustrates how you can give a fresh look to a traditional Christmas card theme. If you were seeking a traditional look, then you would have just went with the poinsettia image and the red and green plaid decorative paper. However, if you were looking to freshen up the look, then you would add something a bit different. In this case it was using the Distressed Dot stamp image. The contrast of the clean straight lines of the plaid with the distressed dots images gives you visual impact.
