poppystamps Garden Poppy Sidekick Frame Card…

Hi everyone! Playing with new poppystamps dies this week and a new stamp too!

I inked up the new poppystamps 5 ½ x 5 ½ inch Picnic Plaid stamp with three Distress Oxide Inks using the Tim Holtz travel stamp platform. I used the panel inked with Forest Moss for this card. I like it a lot! It stamped really well. Easy to clean up because the stamp platform cover comes off, I was able to take it directly to the sink to wash the ink off between changing ink colors. Dried with a clean, damp shammy.

I die cut the plaid panel with one of the Memory Box Rectangle Basics dies to match up behind the Sidekick frame.

Using the stencil that comes with the die, I inked up the poppies with regular Distress inks and the make up brushes that look like toothbrushes. I used Barn Red, Festive Berries and Fired Brick. Then I went in with a color pencil and drew over the embossed lines from the die. I colored the stems with G95 Copic Sketch Marker. It matched the Forest Moss Oxide ink perfectly!

I die cut and colored a couple extra ‘parts’ from the complete die to embellish the sentiment.

‘Sending Happy Wishes’ is from the new poppystamps Springtime Greetings clear stamp set and stamped with Ranger Archival Black ink in a MISTI stamping tool.

Hope your Spring is shaping up all pretty and full of flowers! There’s an even newer release from Memory Box now and I’m hoping there’s some on the way to me as I type! Stores already have them in stock so be sure to check them out!

Well, that’s right pretty!!! Love the plaid in the background – really sets the stage for the beautiful blooms. The offset frame is awesome! Great job!

Hi Pam what a lovely card everything matches so perfectly. Just beautiful. Can’t wait for the rain to stop so the flowers will start to bloom in the garden we have had a cool wet spring so far.

Gorgeous card! I love the red and green combo.

Really pretty card. I would never have thought to use a background stamp like that, but it looks wonderful.

Oh what a pretty card! I love all those flowers! Gorgeous Pam!

Darn, another die for my wish list! This makes a gorgeous card, Pam!!
