Poppy is heading across the Atlantic to help Kathleen celebrate her new lungs for this week's MMTPT362 Celebrate - Dance to the Music challenge.
I stamped Poppy on watercolour paper, switching out her little flag for the banner and adding a balloon. I distressed the edges, sponged them slightly with blue and added Stickles.
For the base I wanted something bright and happy, so I sponged white card with squeezed lemonade, stamped the sunburst with wild honey and sponged the edges with barn door. I added little stars over the image panel and base - the ones on the base, and the edge, are Stickled for sparkle, while the ones on the main panel are just gold. I added a fun celebration sentiment and that was it...

Oh, Sabrina, this is absolutely adorable and precious! And, woohoo, praise God for Kathleen and how He has provided her lungs and is healing her!! She is going to LOVE this precious Poppy with the balloon! Beautifully done, my sweet friend! What a blessing to know Kathleen is doing so well. It's been a long road, and we continue to pray for her and her DH! Hugs!

What a fun image! That sunburst border is wonderful - you said "that is all there is to it" but it looks like a bit more time than that to include all the colors!
