This is for this week Tea Party Challenge - Gladiolus For Faithfulness. I do not have any gladiolus stamps so I chose poppies for remembrance as part of the meaning of Gladiolus. I used my Misti to ink the large poppy stamp using Tomboy markers. I then used a blending brush with the Antique Linen DO ink. Added the sentiment and ribbon.
It is the end of the month where we Teapotters send our cards to each other. Thank you for this challenge, Gracie & TFL!

Beautiful red poppy card, and poppies are often associated with the birthday month of August. I found that out when researching "August" birthdays. Hugs

Wow your poppies are so pretty. You were able to get some great stampings with the markers on the stamps...I don't seem to do so well with that. I like how you added the extra die cut behind the sentiment.

You and Me both. No Gladdies in the collection. You have used your poppy stamp beautifully. I do like the way you used that pretty die to frame your sentiment.
