It’s time for the Altenew and Ellen Hutson United We Flourish Poppy Fields Blog Hop! And if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from Julia Stainton’s wonderful blog!
I kept my card simple today and used some Distress Inks to create a watercolour look on my Poppy Fields flowers, I have a video linked below for you watch the process.
The sentiment I used is from More Than Words and I used Pure White embossing powder to heat emboss it on the Lagoon cardstock.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.
