For all the cards I used Splitcoast sketch challenges.  I used Spellbinders dies on the first two and an embossing folder on the second.  On the first card I grabbed the gold embossing powder and on the others my Copics.  I took some sponges and inks to the second card.  The eagle eyed amongst you may have noticed an appearance or two of the poinsettias from yesterday's stamp set.
