I inked the image with VersaMark, stamped onto watercolour paper and heat embossed with black embossing powder. I used inks and a water brush to colour in the poppies. I made a 5 1/4" square Real Red card base, added the image and stamped and heat embossed the sentiment underneath. I added two jewels to the sentiment to complete the card front. I kept the design very simple but I think the red, black and white colour combo adds a touch of drama.
I used a mixture of silhouette stamps from a Hobby Art clear set to decorate the inside of the card and the envelope.

This is fabulous! I've always liked poppies and this is simply super!
Hi Ruth!
I'm a fairly new subscriber to your blog and really enjoy your pretty card creations. I've noticed that you often create matching stickers for the back of your envelopes. This is something that I also love to do. May I ask if you use a Zyron sticker maker for this technique or do you have another method?
This is beautiful, Ruth! Love this black, white and red color combo and your poppies look fantastic!
Stunning card Ruth, I love the colour combo and the image is beautiful xx
Love the colour combo, black red and white always look so classic together, the red really pops!!
