I started by using an 8 X 8 card and matted it with navy paper, before using white card that I embossed with the dots folder. Then came to layers picking the colours of the distress inks that I used in my stamped piece. I stamped on to watercolour card and then using my chosen selection of inks I blended and spritzed away until I was happy with the outcome. then using perfect pearls I highlighted the full piece, before adding the triple navy organza ribbon bow, and using the beautiful stamps from Sincerely Yours by Phill Martin. Really pleased with this card and enjoyed my playtime too. Last Thursday I had the most enjoyable day with Annie and Astrid, so I have put a picture below my post. We really did get down and dirty as well as a cutting die session too. Annie provided the most delicious lunch finished of by Date and Nut truffles made by Astrid.
A very Happy Day was enjoyed by All. Hugs Rita xxx

Oh my goodness Rita this card is magnificent. Your getting down and dirty has really paid off. I love your poppies and the colours are beautiful together. The truffles sound nice. I don't suppose you have any left? No! Thought not. Lol Hugs Mrs A.
