Poppies - Day #10! For this card I wanted to use some guilding flakes, along with one of my favourite poppy stamp sets, which is from IndigoBlu. I think I need a bit more practise stamping with the flitter glue to make sure I get a crisp image, and if I was feeling a bit braver I might even add some colour to the poppy - maybe I will do that and add an update!
The background was made using some glimmer sprays - I made a bit of a stash of them a while ago, so I am not sure if this is using a Creative Expressions or Tattered Angels spray - will have to see if I can figure it out!
You can't see the beautiful variation in colours in the guilding flakes in the photo above, but I think you can see it here.
I am adding this card to the following:

Materials Used:
IndigoBlu - Poppy Meadow A5 stamp set
Creative Expressions - mulled wine gilding flakes
