I'm SO thrilled to be a CAS guest designer this week! Our theme is Mother's Day or May Flowers. We've already had Mother's Day here in the UK (in March) so I made a card with a more generic sentiment.
Poppies start to appear in late May here, so I chose those as my May flower, but went for the blue Himalayan variety. (Not too many of those in London lol!) I used a lovely digital image from the Sketching Stamper and coloured it with soft pencils and sansador.
Thanks for dropping by to look!

Ohh my Britzi!! You know, my favourite colour for a flower is blue!! But, not many flowers come in blue - especially not poppies!! For a second I thought you had taken liberties in colouring those poppies BLUE - but then I read that they are of the Himalayan varitey....... okay, I'll let it go!!!
Gorgeous colouring - amazing depth with your pencils!!
Beautiful card!! Wowsers Sally ! I just love this card!
