Bright Red Poppies

AUGUST CARD SKETCH ASC #35I created this card with a the help of the August sketch from Artful Delight. I've been a long time follower, but haven't played along with a challenge for a long time.

I decided to use bright red poppies as the focal point. I stamped them on a white card base so they would really pop once they were colored with bright red.

This card came together with the help of a Penny Black poppy stamp, Memento Ink,  BIC Mark Its, the Brocade die from Lifestyle Crafts, DMC Embroidery thread and Bazzill cardstock.
