This is for the IC335 challenge - inspiration from the Vintage Trading Company website. I was inspired by the Poppy Swag.
I first masked off the sides of the card front with Post -It Notes, then stamped the Hero Arts Delicate Blossom image in Memento Desert Sand and colored them in with Prismacolor pencils.
I tried the borderless coloring technique from Dina Kowal's tutorial.

Your card is beautiful! The poppies are perfect. I like the look of the colored pencils, it adds a texture to the flowers. Good work and thanks for sharing!
