Good morning! How are y’all today? I have sorority social at my house tonight so I spent yesterday doing some cleaning . . . . I know, I know . . . such an ugly word! You know things like washing rugs, mopping floors . .
. . all those dreaded must dos every once in a while.
For my card today, I thought it would be fun to show you an entirely different look for the poppy I posted yesterday. I thought yesterday’s card was pretty plain for me . . . no distressing, not much layering . . . pretty clean actually.
Well, I just couldn’t help myself last night! Lots of distressing, layers on layers, sponging until you rub the sponge off the dauber, and red poppies colored with Copic Markers. It makes you think of Dorothy and Toto . . .
The striped frame was made from light weight chipboard covered in the paper. YES, my Labels Four Nesties cut through the chipboard coaster!
