Poppies




I felt like making a simple card today, and wanted to enter the fab competition at Charmed Cards and Craft to win a set of Copics which ends in a few days, so used my lovely new foam Poppy stamp and watercoloured it in with a Marvy Le Plume and Adirondack Lettuce ink pad, which I stamped the flower with first. I matted it onto a tall card, Funky Fairys Feeling Fruity green paper being a perfect match for the Lettuce ink (link on right side bar to FF) and added some black Stickles for the centres of the poppies and some gems and a brad to finish.
