A group of the Art With Heart Team is hopping through the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order and Week 44 is all about Poppy Parade.
Here is my project, a rich red cluster of Poppy Parade cherries sitting in a stack of terracotta pots. Don’t they pop against my hand drawn Summer Splash gingham background (created with a ruler and the Stampin’ Blends)?
My card is CASED from an amazing card made by @hammondandpenny for a recent @stampinthroughthecatalog challenge. I loved Melodie’s hand drawn gingham and her retro colour combination! This is Melody’s card.
To create my juicy cherries I coloured them using the Poppy Parade Stampin’ Up! blends before covering the cherries with a thin layer of glue from the fine-tip glue pen. Let it dry before adhering to the card.
The leaves and the pot are also coloured using Stampin Blends. I’ve used Old Olive for the leaves and Copper Clay for the pots.
The layers are die cut using the Countryside Corners dies and I’ve stamped and coloured another cluster of strawberries on the envelope flap.
