Poppy Sketch {You're So Cool}

It took me a few days to figure out how to work out this week's Poppy sketch. I loved it, but I wasn't feeling it right away. So after going back to look at it at least 4 different times, it finally hit me. I used the cool new set, Let's Chill by Reverse Confetti. TO be honest, I was really inspired by THIS sweet card by Diane. Swoon!


I used the So Stripey set along the bottom in a Pistachio Pudding ink. I then cut out two of the fun popsicle images from the Let's Chill Confetti Cuts. At first I filled in the centers with my wink of stella glitter marker. Then I decided to add some Martha Stewart Coarse Glitter. 


I struggled with the peachy color in the challenge, so I pulled it in just a little bit by using Insulation pink for the popsicle sticks and the card base. I stamped the sentiment in Simon Says Stamp, Smoke ink. 

As a finishing touch, I splattered on some Mint Green Color Shine. I made this card a little skinnier than most. It's 4 inches x 5.5. 

Here is the sketch. You'll see I flipped it to my favorite vertical card orientation. 

I am also taking another shot at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge-Die Crazy
