More TSG Sneak Peeks-Day 3!!!

sooo, do I dare ask which new set is your favorite so far? Just so you know, I love them all. New stamps just make me giddy!
Today is the day we share our creations for another HUGE set, Poppies. Wasn't it a field of poppies that Dorothy and company had to walk through to get the the Emerald City??? I loved that, a whole big field of gorgeous red flowers. I used red, but also couldn't resist using kraft on at least one of my cards for this release.


I hope you just came from Kim's Blog. Wasn't it fabulous???? If you didn't, make sure you start at the beginning of the hop, leave a comment at each blog along the way, and then go back to the Mr. Linky Widget on the TSG blog to enter your info for a chance to win this new set!!!


Now that the business is out of the way, Here's my Poppies card.

I stamped the image in Vintage Cream ink and highlighted the stems with a little copic olive marker. I added some soft yellow for one of the butterfly images included in the set and matched it to the sentiment. I know you'll be seeing some amazing coloring with this set along the hop. I can't wait to see it myself!!!

Be sure to hop on to Mercy's Blog and review all the rules of the challenge at the TSG Blog, so you have a chance at the prize. Thanks for stopping by today! Hugs, Lisa

    Hi Lisa~~

    What a unique technique you used. I never would hae thought to add the bright ribbon. I love how it goes from very quiet, subdued poppies to a bright red border!
