PPA 217

Today is Thursday and there is a Sketch Challenge at Pals paper Arts.

Here is the sketch:


I enjoy making square cards, but I don't often do it.  I wanted to use my Pleasant Poppies stamp set to say goodbye to summer.  Each day we are getting closer to Fall, which is fine, but I will miss the flowers of spring and summer.

I used a Wild Wasabi card base, a Basic Black die cut and whisper White for the image. 

 First I sponged the Whisper White with Wild Wasabi Ink.  Then I stamped the Poppies with Memento Ink.  I colored the flowers and stems with Blendabilities and then stamped the background with an image from Gorgeous Grunge.  The sentiment is from Ray of Sunshine.

  1. Gorgeous card. I would never have guessed the green was all one color the way it turned out. It really pops with color, kind of perfect for summer going into fall.
