Hi there! I have a card to share with you using the beautiful new Poppy Fields stamp set, Poppy Fields coordinating dies and the Inside Birthday Greetings stamp set from Sunny Studio Stamps!
And yes, I do know that poppies are red, but I decided to make a bouquet of poppies in a lovely mix of pink, purple and orange! That's what's so fun about stamping!
I first created a background for my card using distress inks in Blueprint Sketch, Wilted Violet and Broken China. I blended these onto Bristol Board cardstock and then speckled with water and blotted.
I then stamped all of the flowers, leaves and stems with the Poppy Fields Stamp set in the following Pinkfresh Studio inks:
Pinks: Ballet Slipper, Sparkling Rose, Bubble Gum, Raspberry Bliss
Oranges: Peach Fizz, Apricot, Clementine, Persimmon
Purples: Soft Lilac, Candy Violet, Lavender, Regal Kiss
Greens: Fresh peas, Olive
I cut all of the images out with the Poppy Fields Coordinating dies.
I then adhered the stems with liquid glue first and then added all of the flowers and leaves with glue dots.
Lastly I stamped the sentiment from the Inside Birthday Greetings stamp set on black cardstock and heat embossed it. I cut it out and added it to the bottom of the bouquet with foam tape.
I hope you have enjoyed my card today!
Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your weekend!
Kay :)
I love your gorgeous and colorful bouquet of poppies! I know some can be orange/yellow for sure because that is the CA state flower. :) I love your bold color choices that pop off the card, Kay! Thanks so much for sharing. Crafty hugs!
