For my first card I did paper tole with the outlined poppies images from  POPPIES FOR YOU
I used the flower pot from POT OF TULIPS
I used this week's mojo Monday sketch (MOJO339) as my inspiration. When I was done, I felt it needed just a little MORE so I added the sentiment panel.



My second card used the image from Pot of Tulips. I printed it on an encyclopedia page and then water colored it. I colored them to look like "Apricot Impression" tulips. I saw this variety last year and they became my favorite tulip.

Free digi has expired but you can still get it at the Daydream designs store :  POPPIES FOR YOU

The free digi that Diane is letting me give away is this outline digi of the poppies.   This free digi will only be available during the blog hop. (expires 4-6-2014)
