MORE "POPPY MOMENTS"

I hope you aren't tired of seeing the Poppy Moments dies, but I'm just a little addicted to using them.  I promise that I'll move on to something else soon.

It seemed like I hadn't sent a card to "the elders" in a while, so I thought this little dilly would be a cheery design for them.  Aunt Betty, who used to enjoy tending to her many plants and flowers, told my mother that she got "the prettiest card with a big poppy!"  Maybe that shouldn't have excited me to know that she readily identified the flower; after all, whoever designed this product suite at Stampin' Up! must surely have done so with the intent of creating gorgeous poppies.  If "poppy" wasn't in the name of this product suite, I would never know that it wasn't just a pretty design that resembles a real flower.


Of course, my parents needed a pretty card, too, so I made this one just for them:


I'll tell you something . . .  it's not easy placing that gorgeous designer paper on the trimmer!  To most of the world, it's *just* paper but, for those of us who love our pretty paper, it's hard to talk ourselves into cutting it.  

Are you loving the poppies as much as me?  I know I've shared a lot of them, but I'll challenge myself to share something different in my next post.  😉

I can't wait to open my Poppy DSP/Suite and make the card you posted Saturday, March 21, 2020
MORE "POPPY MOMENTS".
Can you please share which EF/Sentiment Stamp and size of two top papers?
This is truly a very bright and cheery card.
Thank you so much.

CBP, I think you're asking for info on the card that was posted on 3/21/20, and I don't know the exact measurement of the top two layers because I no longer have that card here. The white layer is probably 4" x 5.25", and the DSP would be approx. 2.5" x 5.25". The EF is Country Floral, and the sentiment is from the Modern Heart stamp set.
