Birthday Poppies


 

Hello there! Today I'm sharing a card I created for two challenges: (1) Retro Rubber Challenge - "Anything Goes" and (2) The Flower Challenge - "Add Spots Or Stripes."


I'm not exactly sure when the Painted Poppies stamp set from Altenew was released but I know it's been in my stash for quite a few years and I still love it! Here I just used two of the images in the set for a bold, graphic look. Who doesn't love black and white + stripes + a pop of color?!?!!! The sentiment is also from an old set from Ellen Hutson called Succulent Sentiments. I LOVE that font!!!

Giving this to my neighbor friend. I hope she likes it!

Thanks for visiting! I hope you're having a great weekend!

  1. The color just pops with the black and white. I love the simplicity of it.

  3. Lisa, I have always loved that little dash of black and white diagonal stripes - you and one other of my bloggy friends use it so perfectly!
    I love this set - now why don't I have it?? A lovely bright orange to complement the stripes!

  5. I have this set too and as I brought it with me from the UK in 2013, I am assuming it's over 10 years old!! Great card, love the striped bottom and all the splatter. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber this time. Claire DT
