This is my take on today's Inspiration Challenge. I'm kinda late getting uploaded, but there you go.
I'll start with, let me explain about this card. The biggest image is a pic from a magazine. Apparently, I save everything. If I only had a place to keep everything, lol. So I trimmed it, attached to peach c/s. Then to a forest card front.
The panel on the left is stamped on pale pink vellum and colored on the back side with markers then attached to the peach c/s. I stamped the poppy border at the bottom the same way and cut around the top.
I stamped the word Poppies using a clear alphabet and the kpad and quickly embossed it w/ clear ep. It's attached w/ brads. I dotted the poppy centers w/ stickles and since the bottom border is only attached at the bottom and sides, it made the cut flowers curl a little, but I think it adds a little dimension. I did the dots all around w/ the peach souffle pen. TFL
