Poppies for a Perfect Day!

Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made this week with a beautiful new 'to me' stamp. It seems no matter how many flower stamps we have, there is always room for a couple more.   This one is Altenew's Iceland Poppies with the Altenew's Organic Linen Embossing folder for the background.

After stamping the image, I used Copic markers for the coloring.  I used a double notched rectangle die for the completed image.  

I selected a 4" x 6" light green card base.  I trimmed the embossed folder paper down to about 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" and secured it to the card base.  Before adding the colored image, I inked the edges with Copic YG67.   I added a left over 1/2" strip of the green across the base of the image, then added the Happy Birthday fishtail sentiment tag to complete the card design.

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog. I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to 'Follow' my blog and to visit my site - "Not Just Scraps' on Facebook - where you can purchase my cards.
