We will remember

 Happy Saturday

Hope you are all well

I made something different to my usual cards- we all need a change sometimes

Last year I bought 8 box frames 10x10 inch and had not touched them until today

My daughter works in a Residential home and thought maybe they would like a framed picture for there communal area

If they don't want it I know someone who would

It has not come out as I wanted but was worth the try, after all it is only card a the end of the day. I think I put too many poppies on it which throws it off balance but hey ho thought I would show it anyhow

So I used the following ingredients

Pink Frog White super smooth cardstock for the background and the poppies

Versafine clair Nocturne

Mixture of distress oxides, splattered with water and the used fan brush across the wet background so was quite wet. I splattered bleach, red and black posca over it

Pink Frog Precious poppies stamps, stamped many and cut out, snipped inbetween the petals to manipulate them

Used Tansai Gambi paints, reds, orange, yellow and ochre on the poppies

Stinky Silicone glue for the flowers
