Poppy birthday


Good Morning everyone.  I hope you are all doing ok.

Today im sharing a little card i made for my sister in laws birthday, she loves poppies and neutral colours so its a CAS design.


Card approx 4.5x6"  I first die cut my white frame from white linen card and on the middle panel that comes out i stamped the poppy with back archival ink, i also stamped a little butterfly.  I coloured the poppy stem/leaves with alcohol markers in a soft green.  I stamped the poppy head and butterfly again onto a scrap of pale red patterned paper and cut them out, i then paper pieced them onto the main panel and added touches of glitter glue.
  
I mounted my frame onto the card front with foam tape and them slipped the topper panel back into place.  Stamped greeting onto a die cut banner to finish - i added a dot of the glitter glue to each end of the banner. 


A close up, i also went around the outside of the image with a very pale grey

Items Used:
Stampingbella stamps 'straight up floral' (eb702)
MME Indie Chic 'ginger' paper
Sentiment stamp
Butterfly stamp
Stitched scallop frame
MFT Fishtail banner die
MME indie chic paper 'ginger'
green & grey alcohol markers
Fruit Punch stickles glitter glue

Thank you all for stopping by.  Stay safe.  Hugs Emmax

What a beautiful card Emma! I adore paper piecing and this works perfectly. And i didn't recognise the stamp at all - just shows how very different it looks with patterned paper! Love it!

Hugs
