Good morning friends and visitors.. My day over on Poppystamps blog today..
Sharing my card http://poppystamps.typepad.com/
my favourite flowers are Poppies! red or any colour, love the delicate petals on these flowers..I have tried to capture this on these petals..using Poppystamps "Blooming Poppy die"
I normally use a crepe paper. you have to be careful as this is not colour fast with water..
Leave the coffee filters as they are double, ink with a blending tool, I used distress "fired brick" ink both side.
Spray with plenty of water and dry with a heat tool.. Next cut out just the petals from Poppystamps. Blooming Poppy die.
This is how I add shape.. moulding mat and ball tool..I separated the two of each from the coffee filter..top are ones as they have been cut..bottom petals have been shaped, it is a strong paper even when wet..
Close up of Blooming Poppies on dark green stems.. Gental Leaf Collage for the background, shaded with distress ink Tumbled Glass, dot of green are from Poppystamps New "Studio Blotter" CL449 clear stamps, infilled with "Heart Screen" die cuts.
Just Saying from "Sentiment Of Hello" CL451 stamps with "Little Luxe Hello die cut in white card shadowed with green card.
Hope you like my take on Poppy flowers..
Thank you for stopping by Pam x..

Love your poppies and over-all design today. Thank you for sharing your poppy technique using the coffee filter with distress ink. You have inspired me to give this a try. I think I have some coffee filters!
You're amazing with the poppies! What a fantastic idea to use coffee filters, especially because most of us have them on hand. Another idea to try! This card is exceptionally beautiful all over. The leaves, the sponging, the speckles... Love how you've tucked the hearts in there. So creative and gorgeous!!
