Oh, I do adore these poppies so I had to use them for my card today! I decided to try some no line coloring for them and although I’m not really very good at it I do like the airy look they have with this technique. I stamped the images with Cement Gray Hybrid Ink on No-Line Coloring card stock and colored them with Copic markers. The card background was done with a watercolor wash on Ranger Watercolor Paper and I splattered it with black Liquitex ink before adhering it to the Sweet Tooth card stock base.
I created a frame using Black & White Stripes Patterned Paper and A2 Rectangle STAX Set 1 and popped it up on the base with foam tape. I popped the poppies up in the frame and finished off with Miss You Die-namics, cut from Black Licorice card stock three times, stacked, and adhered with foam tape as well.
And that’s it from me today! Thank so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day Four of MFT’s August Release Countdown!
