I loved the unique look of these socks in the bold colors and graphic design from our inspiration site Poketo. I didn't have the dp to match the b/w designs in the scale that I wanted, so I used punched circles and cut strips to add black to my white pieces. I die cut the poppies in black then Real Red and layered the red over the top. I used Tempting Turquoise for my bg and brought in the triangles from the inspiration piece by embossing in the Argyle ef. I stamped my tag in Real Red and layered over black adding a black eyelet and black organdy ribbon and bow.
