Poppies In Memorium – Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stampin’ Dreams – In Memorium Blog Hop where we are sharing Sympathy cards. Coming up to Remembrance Sunday the Painted Poppies stamp set seemed the most appropriate stamp set to use to make my Poppies In Memorium card today.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Poppies In Memorium card, you will need:

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Poppy Parade card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper left corner for the inside

I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the lower right corner of the smaller panel of Basic White card. I actually masked off part of the sentiment with Post It Notes before inking up and stamping.

Using the same black ink, I stamped the group of poppies three times across the panel.

The flowers were then coloured in using the Poppy Parade Blends Combo Markers.

I added a strip of the gorgeous Glittered Organdy Ribbon to the card and secured it on the back of the panel with Sellotape. The whole panel was then added using Multipurpose Adhesive to the Poppy Parade panel.

The whole panel was added to the Basic Black card front on Dimensionals.

I added a bow made from the same glittery ribbon using a Mini Glue Dot.
