Cup of Columbine ~ Power Poppy

 

Hello all you creative souls!!  I am so excited to share my project with you today.  Marcella just released a new Power Poppy digital image yesterday called Cup of Columbine, and it is charming!!!  There are a couple of image options, and it comes with no-line versions!  I decided to try my hand with the no-line image without the bird and egg.  This is only the second time I've ever attempted no-line coloring, so please, don't look too close.

I thought it would be fun to add a pattern to the napkin, so I used my Copics to color in a stencil.  As I'm looking at it, I'm realizing I should have added some depth and dimension to the pattern itself, but alas, I don't have the time. Something to think about the next time I try my hand at patterns.

I added a sweet little sentiment from the Power Poppy Poppies set.  My Son and Daughter-in-law are going to have their first child this summer, so that means, in my eyes, my DIL is already a mother.  So I wanted to make a special first Mother's Day card for her. 
 

That's it for my project today.  Be sure and stop by the Power Poppy Blog for the links to all the gals who debuted this set yesterday.  And check out what the following Bloomies have to share today:

Happy Mother's Day

I'm a bit late posting today. It's Monday and Deb (88Keys - SCS) is in charge of the challenges this month for our CCEE group. This week we were to making a Mother's Day card. To see what the other girls have come up with, head on over the CCEE Stamper's Blog.

This card is rather large. I just took a standard sized piece of black cardstock and folded it in half. The images were stamped with Brilliance Graphite Black and embossed with Clear Detailed ep (JudiKins). The Rhinestones are Kaisercraft, and Multicolored Mini Rhinestones (Zva)
