pretty poppies

Hello,
 
i am really excited about this post as i have been asked to be a guest design team member for Joanna Sheen challenge blog.
 
i was really honoured to be asked and wanted to make something special so i dug out my favorite poppy stamps and my copic markers.
here is my first card
 
 
i've used red and black cardstock to cut the shape using sizzix 3D accordian die. its much easier than it looks.
I also used scalloped labels 1 and labels 1 from spellbinders nestabilities.
 
Joanna sheens Favorite Flowers, wild flowers, Dancing Poppies can be found here
these flowers really are a delight to colour.
i chose copic markers this time but i often use promarkers.
 
the lovely sentiment can be found here
 
they are Sheena Douglas A Little Bit Sketchy, poppy and daisies.
 
I used a little Bundled Sage distress ink round the sentiment, leaving the labels 1 die in place to give me the nice white border.
 
this is the front of the card, its all folds down nice and compact so its a lovely suprise when its opened out.
I've added plain card to back panel so that i have somewhere to write my message.
my final photo is a top view to give you an idea of the shape a little better. its not easy to take pictures of this shaped card. (ok, im a rubbish photographer) lol
 
 
if ive missed anything please feel free to ask, im happy to help if i can and thank you for any comments you may want to leave.
 
Please come and join us at joanna sheens challenge blog.
 
please come back and see what i can come up with for my next dt card, just in time for christmas. aww is that a clue? lol
 
thank you for stopping by, i really appreciate your visit.
 
hugs suzanne
