I tried the EB Folder Inking Technique. Sponge ink on the top of your folder and then spritz with water. Then place your CS over the wet puddles of ink and then remove your CS and you get a cool watercolored effect. I did mask my CS, but you would not have too. Just keeping mine more CAS.
I stamped my flowers because I do not have a poppy die. I then stamped the DSP and fussy cut the flowers to add dimension. There are 2 layers on each flower for more dimension.
The XOXO die cut sentiment has 4 layers for dimension.

Creative genious. I love your "stencil". And Oh So Lovely is perfect for this. I almost used it today for another project. Your poppy colors are perfect.

Gosh - this is beautiful! I'm glad I spotted it today. I love the way the paper you used for piecing the blossoms goes so wonderfully with your background.
