When I received this stamp set/die, I had a bit of hard time thinking of the ways in stamping the images in the best possible way...In the end, I decided to using the Orange Cream from Altenew November Ink Spray Bundle and mixed the colors with Ruby Red.
With that beautiful ink-sprayed colored paper, I was able to stamp the Poppy Flower in two layers (omitting the first solid layer).
I then created a a very subtle background with the new Floral Mandala Stencil.
Of course, the matching die cut makes it super easy to assemble the entire card. I took out the nozzle of Lagoon Metallic Spray and carefully added the splatter!
I have another completely different version with the Poppy Build-A-Flower.
Please do come back as I will share it in a few days!

Love the vibrancy of this poppy. Since it's our state flower and since in the Spring my backyard is covered in them, I'm a bit biased. They're such a happy color and the subtle background you created is perfect for this one.
