The
A/C had to go back on! We are once again experiencing hot and humid weather.
This has been such a strange summer weather wise. Oh well, it’s better than cold
and snow! I am so not a winter person.
I
love flowers; especially poppies; and I love colouring them. In fact I just
bought two new Power Poppy stamp sets from the clearance rack at our local
scrapbooking store – Whoot! Whoot! But I don’t have them coloured yet. The one
on this card was a free download from the Internet.
I
love orange poppies so I coloured it orange using coloured pencils and blended
with gamsol. The blue is chalk that was sponged on. I also happen to have a lot
of this orangy-yellowish paper from a thrift store find so it worked really
well with this coloured poppy. The poppy was mounted on black; then the striped
paper; then the orange paper; and then a yellow card base. I used the
Spellbinder label die set to die cut a black label; stamped the sentiment with VersaMark
and then heat set it with white embossing powder. The ribbon is from the stash.
I think this made a cheerful card for someone not feeling well.
That’s
all for a hot and humid Friday, July 28, 2017…..which happens to be one of my
daughter’s birthday….and a cousin’s birthday! …..okay, second cousin actually
but we are only a year apart so we decided to say cousins. Have a wonderful
weekend everyone and remember to be kind, always.
Cheers
