It's Veteran's Day today...a day set aside to recognize all those who are or have been previously in the military service. A special thanks was an appropriate sentiment for my card that was inspired by the poppies in the photo for the Inspiration Station challenge #79.
I started by stenciling a script and a mini tile texture background. The poppies were cut from water color paper and blended with a shades of red and a hint of pink and orange distress inks. The leaves were blended using Crushed Olive and Peeled Paint distress inks.
STAMPS: Effortless Beauties (Papertrey Ink).
DIES: Into the Blooms: Poppies, On the Edge Scallops Collection, Effortless Beauties (Papertrey Ink).
OTHER: Mini Tile Texture 6x6" stencil by The Crafter's Workshop; Script stencil by Hero Arts.
That's it for today! Thanks for stopping by and commenting. ~Wanda
Gorgeous card! Beautiful coloring and design!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Wanda. Those poppies are colored beautifully and the black border really sets them off.
ReplyDeleteYour water coloured poppies are so pretty - they almost look like crepe paper. Love your card design and so perfect for our mood board this month. Thanks for playing along with us at Inspiration Station - hope to see you again next month.
