The Queen for the Day challenge over at SCS is Arizona Maine. (See previous post for another card CASEing Angela.) She's one fantastic stamper! I really loved this card when I saw it. I don't have this particular stamp although I would love to have it. A few months back we did this technique at our stamping group in Roanoke Rapids. I was delighted to be able to use the background poppy stamp that one of the ladies brought, but had never colored it. I pulled it out and had some fun.
I used Stampin' Up! markers to color the flowers.
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
Card Recipe
Stamps: Poppies (Hero Arts), Petite Pairs
Ink: VersaMark, Jet Black StazOn, SU Markers (Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Lucky Limeade)
Paper: Whisper White
Other: Black EP, Stripes EF, Daffodil Delight Satin Ribbon (retired), Large Oval Punch
When we were working on the embossing, there was a lot of static in the tables. Black embossing powder was going everywhere. I thought I could make a mess with embossing powde!. Multiply that by 8 and imagine!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Enjoy!
The technique is the same, but this background was embossed with black instead of white and I used warmer colors.
The colors are from the Paper Players challenge this week and they were perfect for this project.

This is GORGEOUS!!! I'd like to know more about how you get that background done. Did you use a Versamark pen? I think I'll try it on a small card.

Hi Bonnie,
After seeing your absolutely beautiful poppies, I tried to find them at Hero Arts, but no luck. I was so taken by your art work. You have a big fan in me!
