Poppies

Hello!

Here I am back with my third one layer card of the week - it is becoming a habit :)  When I was looking for stamps to play along with this week's Less Is More challenge I came across this poppy stamp from Clarity which I haven't used for ages.  I didn't want to leave it feeling neglected.....

 
I inked round a circle mask to create the sun and coloured the poppies in with coloured pencils.  The sentiment is from Mama Elephant.  Simple!

I will also link up for a second time at Addicted to CAS where the code word is Bloom.

I hope you like it :)

    It should become a habit! Awesome one layer cards lately! This one is no exception. Love the "sun" behind the poppies. I have a hard time doing anything but one layers now. I like making my one layers look like they have real layers. Like I'm being tricksy. LOL. :-)

    Brilliant idea to add the sun silhouette behind those lovely poppies, adds interest but is still super CAS. Lou x

    That cirkle is just what makes it such an original card! Think you are "stuck" in the one-layers for a while...not that I mind; all look great untill now... Enjoy the weekend!
