 Hello-

I hope anyone dealing with this heat wave is able to stay cool.  Have you seen the gorgeous inspo photo over at Just Us Girls?  I have an old long time favorite poppy stamp from Hero Arts that came out to play. 

 

Its colored in a no line style.  The actual stamp had a lot of lines in it which I don't care much for, but I do love the lay out of the stamp.  The sentiment was found in my sentiment folder and I cannot remember which die its from. The sentiment perfectly brought in the sky and sand colors for those lovely poppies.

 

 

 Thanks so much for visiting.

Well that's a brilliant way to deal with those lines that you dislike. Your colouring is perfect. You have given your poppies a lovely depth of colour and your shading has cleverly added dimension. Your sentiment was a lucky find and such perfect colours xx

Cat, you may have stepped away for a little while - okay, a LONG while - but your talents haven't skipped a beat! I LOve that your no-line coloring with Copics makes these poppies come to life right before our eyes!
Exceptionally beautiful!
