Pop Goes The World Challenge



We have something new brewing over at Power Poppy...Be inspired by the beauty of this photo and use at least three out of the four colors we've highlighted. Choose from shades of purple or orange or yellow or even a nice grassy green in your creation! Also, you have to use one of Power Poppy's digital stamps to be in the running! So choose from Gerbera Daisies, Tulips, Gladioli or Peonies! 


This week over at Power Poppy we are ushering in our very first challenge.  How exciting is that?  Check out the details over on the Power Poppy Blog:   POWER POPPY MAY CHALLENGE


The challenge is a color challenge using: Purple, Green, Orange and Yellow.  I chose Power Poppies Digital Tulips image available here:  Tulips.
I wanted to keep my card clean and simple.  There is a huge trend towards CAS cards.  I love that.  So I focused more on my coloring.  Plus it is going to be sent across the pond and that makes the postage so much cheaper.  My friendly postal guy told me the other day I really should think about mailing flatter envies.  He just doesn't get it..hehe.  Every card needs a little bling.  

The Copic markers I used are as follows:
Y000, Y13, Y15, YR09, YR15
Leaves:  YG03, YG13, YG17
Tulips:  BV000, BV08, BV13, 
V25

Below is a list of the Bloom Brigade that are giving you some examples to drool over:

  7. Beautiful purple tulips! It's so hard to keep a card flat and still interesting and pretty. I have those sparklers, but have never used them. They are definitely lumpy, but soooooo pretty! No, your postal carrier just doesn't understand. Your friends are worth the postage! Gorgeous card, Dawn!

  15. Did I write "poppies"? I meant tulips of course if I did! And if I wrote "tulips" then I think the sun is getting to me! Hugs, Lesley
