Happy Power Poppy Friday~August 17!













Hello there and welcome back to another Power Poppy Friday inspiration post.  I sure hope all is well where you are!  All is good here....hot...and HUMID....but all good!  :)  Today I have a petite card to share with you using Power Poppy's Geraniums Take Two stamp set.


I started by stamping my image and sentiment with Memento's Tuxedo Black ink on to white card stock.  After die cutting my image, I colored it with Copics and added a little Ranger Distress ink in Antique Linen.  I also used some Papertrey Ink Chai and Chamomile inks then added some shimmer with a Wink of Stella clear brush pen.  I adhered my image panel to a die cut card base layered with a bit of patterned paper.  The finished card measures 3 1/4" x 4 1/2".









































This image was a very quick color up....I stippled the blooms with a few shades of red....nothing precise at all...just some color to make them pop.  I just love this sweet scene....complete with a little spritz can!  I am always amazed at Marcella's creativity and attention to every detail.  :)






I couldn't resist one last close up of all of the beautiful details in Marcella's image....and that sweet little sentiment!  

So, that is all for my card today, but some of my Bloomie sisters have some beauties to share with you today.  Make sure you leave a little blog love for them when you visit. Also make sure you check out the Power Poppy blog for all of the latest goings on over there....so much to see!   I thank you  for stopping by today and hope to see you again really soon.  Until then, have a wonderful weekend and take care!  :)

Happy Power Poppy Friday~August 3rd!












Hello there and Happy Friday to you!  I hope all has been going well with you!  I have a quick little card to share with you for today's Power Poppy Friday inspiration.  I chose to use the Simply Camellias stamp set for my image and the Soothing Sympathy stamp set for my sentiment.






I started by stamping my image with Memento's Tuxedo Black ink on a die cut of rustic white card stock.  After coloring the image with Copics, I stamped the sentiment then stitched a strip of patterned paper down the left side.  Next, I added some shimmer with a Wink of Stella clear brush pen.  All that was left was to add a bit of sheer ribbon and adhere it to a card base.  The finished size of this card is 3 5/8" x 4 7/8".






So that is all for my card today but a couple of my Bloomie sisters, Kathy Jones and Cindy Lawrence, have some pretty amazing creations for your Friday inspiration so make sure you check them out...and leave a little blog love while you are there.  And hey....today the newest Power & Spark challenge is being introduced.  The amazingly talented and Cindy Lawrence is our hostess this month so make sure you check this out over on the Power Poppy blog!





Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you again soon....until then, take care! :)
