Happy Mother's Day


Hi there blog friends ~ It's time for a new challenge at Fusion and this time our prompt is ‘Let Us Remember’.  For my card, I chose the poppies on the inspiration photo... 


I chose this single poppy from MFT's 'Painted Poppies' stamp set and colored the flower petals and leaves with Copic markers. I splattered the background with distress inks and Peerless Watercolors and added a Mother's Day sentiment from WPlus9.

Don't forget the best thing about the Fusion Card Challenge is that you can choose between the sketch and the theme/inspiration photo, or both! My teamies have created some beautiful cards to inspire you, so feel free to stop by the challenge blog and play along with us!


Thanks so much for stopping by,






Supplies:
Stamps: MFT - Painted Poppies; WPlus9 - Mother's Day Bouquet
Dies: MFT - Painted Poppies
Misc: Peerless Watercolors; Tim Holtz - Distress Inks, Watercolor Cardstock
