Poppy Blues

Instructions:

Score and fold a 7.5” x 11” piece of white card at 5.5” to create the card base. Cut a slightly smaller pale green paper from the Wild Poppy paper collection, ink the edges with olive grove ink and adhere to the card base.

Use dark green paper from the collection and die cut the 2 decorative dies from the Filigree companion frame die set, adhere these centrally to the card base using dries clear adhesive.

Die cut the ornamental tags die x2 using the same green paper, adhere them together to create pattern top and bottom and adhere to the centre of the card. Stamp the sentiment in black onto white card, die cut using the tag die and adhere on the decorative centre piece using foam pads.

Make the Poppies x6: Stamp 2 large, 4 medium and 6 small sets of petals onto stamping card using the espresso truffle ink. Colour using a watery mix of denim blue cosmic shimmer shaker. Die cut and add the same colour to the backs. Add sun yellow pixie powder to the centre of the flowers. Allow to dry and edge with summer sky ink. Place face up into the shaping mold, spritz with water and run through the die cutting machine to shape. Add additional shape if required using the groove tools. Use dries clear adhesive to adhere 2 sets of petals together, off set the petals. Place a small blob of hot glue in the center of each flower cover with "you had me at yellow" prills, allow to cool and remove the excess.

Make the Poppy accents:- Stamp 4 corners and 2 of the hips onto stamping card using espresso truffle ink. Colour the flowers using a watery mix of denim blue and sun yellow shimmer powders. Colour the leaves using the spearmint pixie powder and the hips using Dusky mink pixie powder. Allow to dry and shape using the flower shaping tools.

Position and hot glue the florals into place around the sentiment.
