Poppies

In a year of remembrance and commemoration it's obvious why this stamp by Chocolate Baroque from their Flora and Fauna themeplate has been on my mind. So in memory of those who paid with their lives while fighting for their country I have made this card.

The image was stamped in black Stazon, coloured with Prismacolor pencils and a little black glitter used in the middle of the flower on the stamens.   The background was made using the same stamp and Satlin Red Versafine ink which I stamped off onto scrap before stamping the second generation image on my card. There was going to be a bow, or some gems or something, but no matter how I tried fiddling around with possible embellishments nothing seemed to really add anything to the card.
