This card was made for the button challenge going on over at Speedy the Cats Friends Challenge. I used Mark's Finest Papers Poppies, Poppies, Poppies image. I colored with copics and was aiming for an orangey red (tomato) colored poppy. I love this image and it was fun to color!

I love your coloring on these fabulous poppies, Carol. And that's so cool how you wove your ribbon through your punched border strip. That's some good Punchkateer thinking!!!!

Oh my - this is one special creation. Love those cute little buttons and bows! Your coloring on those poppies is absolutely FABULOUS, and I love the papers, stripes, the fun way you weaved the ribbon, the nesties, the bling - and I love the wonderful sentiment. You are an amazing artist my friend!!

Bearzi, this is stunning...almost CAS for you but over the top gorgeous by any standard. You made the most of that image and I love how very well you matched the DP color. Wonderful punched elements and bling, buttons and bow. Beautiful card, my punchy friend!
