Hi! This is a double challenge card. 1st challenge is today`s Color Challenge which was to use Melon Mambo, Soft Suede, Neutrals and the dessert option was wood. Read about it here. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I thought my embossed bg resembled wood paneling. The 2nd challenge is Teaparty Tuesday. Read about it here. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
We are off to the Bat Cave and I brought along these poppies to pretty it up and have it smell good.I stamped this Hero Arts image with HA Chalk Ink and embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. I then stamped with brown Memento Ink on white cs and colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol then cut the blooms out and popped them up. The inside has SU DP and I used a SU Border Punch. I tied twine around my main panel. The envelope is stamped with another poppy from HA. I got this idea from the HA blog I added pearls..\ Thanks for looking and have a fabulous day! It is dark and dreary here today (although I am not complaining as we need rain) but it made it very difficult to photograph. I have another picture on my blog if you would care to visit. http://paper-rose-petals.blogspot.com/
I love when you stop by!!

Judi, this is absolutely stunning!!! Wow, I just can't take my eyes off this. I love how your wonderfully colored melon mambo poppies stand out against that pretty heat embossed background. Your simple embellishments are all this outstanding layout need. I've been so busy recently, out of my stamping routine. Now I realize how much I've missed seeing your lovely creations each day!! Super work
