I really liked Betty's colors for today's Color Challenge and decided to do another card...this time NOT forgetting to add rick rack. I HAD to have that PTI rick rack die, so I better use it! ; ) Their wool felt is also top-notch....cuts like a dream! I noticed that there seems to be a LOT of poppy stamps out there. I lov'em so I'm happy about that. I clear embossed the bottle until it was really shiny...but it doesn't show in the photo. : (

This is lovely Sallie- almost as lovely as your first one which REALLY knocked my socks off!! I love the poppy in the vase on this one- and your rick rack too!~

Another gorgeous creation Sallie! I also love poppies - you colored this one beautifully. Golden Poppies are the state flower here - but I like them in any color!

It's a beautiful poppy, a beautiful layout, beautiful colors - and just plain Beautiful.
Maybe someday they will come out with a camera that can capture the embossing, crystal effects and glitter so it looks as good as in real life. Well, it could be possible. Or maybe it already is out there!

I love flowers in bottles so this really appeals to me - so beautifully colored too. I like what you've done with the embossed background too, so creative!

I love the way you've added black and white to the embossed background panel. Clever. Lovely card.
