Mary is such an inspiration to me, which is why I was delighted to see that she was chosen as FS this week.
I chose to CASE this lovely card: cc380 Miss You by MaryR917 at Splitcoaststampers
I searched Mary's gallery for a card that featured the colors that she chose as CC Hostess, so I kept the color scheme and her poppy theme, but I did change the layout, used a different stamp set & papers and added some distressing. The poppies are stamped and masked; to add dimension to the poppy centers I dotted randomly with several E colors of Copics.
Thanks so much for your inspiration, Mary! Thank you all for looking and have a peaceful day.

Marie, your poppies are so beautifully done, I really like the way you highlighted the centers...also the way you so thoughtfully chose a card that reflects her love for the Color Challenge!
