Poppies

 Hi and welcome!  It's my turn to host over at Freshly Made Sketches and as I like to do, I came up with a simple yet versatile sketch.  Here's the card I made with it:


Gotta say up front, this is not a favourite card.  I now regret adding the black ring frames behind the poppy images, but it was too late to remove them after I decided I didn't like them.  They were stuck down good!

The rectangular panel was created with a stencil and Versamark ink.  Once I had the rectangle inked up I added some embossing powder mixed with texture powder to create a dimensional rough surface.

The flowers were stamped using a new-to-me stamp set from The Ton.  As I said I wish I hadn't used the black frames, but it is what it is.

Thanks for visiting.  I hope you'll check out the blog to see what the rest of the DT have done with my sketch.
