Poppies



I saw a sketch on my travels and I didn't write down where or the sketch. So I thought I would try it with Janey's Digi Designs poppy. I was going to try and merge them but my photo shop doesn't do the same thing twice!
I printed them out as I would normally in this case I printed 3 poppies for each actual poppy on my card. The leaves and stems are cut from a Memory box Chloe and Tulips. The back ground is from a retired Stampin Up set and the sentiment is again from Stampin Up.
Check out other samples of Janey's Digi Designs here.
Of course this wasn't my first attempt, the first card was too small for the gorgeous poppies.


But I wasn't going to waste it so I added a Memory box butterfly with some tiny ones and pearls to finish.
