The Hero Arts stamp set is called Delicate Blossoms, but I am calling them Poppies for the Alpha "P" challenge. I stamped them in black ink first and then used clear embossing powder because I have not had success with using black ep. at all. Then added the sponging and cleaned off the embossed flowers with a bit of paper towel.
I am not going to hoard these epoxy shapes as I heard they yellow over time. So, I added quite a few in the top left corner. The round one flew off the plastic sheet they come on and landed on the large bloom. So I just left it, lol. Could not get a true picture showing the sponged colors irl. tfl.

I see poppies too, Shirl! What lovely images and so pretty. I like your epoxy dots and the one that flew off and landed on the big bloom. Lovely birthday card!

What a gorgeous poppy-filled card this is Shirl (I think they are poppies too!). Your sponging is simply flawless and high lights these wonderfully embossed blooms perfectly! What a fun way to use these epoxy shapes Shirl, and one that inspired me because I would not have thought to use them like this, and I love how they look on your card! Fun! ~Karen.
