Slim Poppy Post

Hiya! Today I am sharing one of my favorite cards from the January 2022 Stampendous catalog. It’s called Slim Poppy Post. I thoroughly enjoyed coloring and painting this piece, and I think the stamp is beautiful. I have instructions and the supplies I used below.

Supplies:
Stampendous:
CS:31: Slim Poppy Post
TP617: Frozen Ice Embossing Tinsel

Other:
Imagine: VersaFine Clair Ink in Nocturne, VersaMark Ink

Canson: Mixed Media Paper XL

Pale Yellow Cardstock

Directions:
1. Stamp the Slip Poppy Post stamp on to Mixed Media Cardstock with Nocturne Ink.

2. Color in the flowers with the Zig Markers listed. Be sure to let the flowers dry.

3. Paint the background using Princeton Snap! brushes and the Gansai Tambi watercolors listed. Be careful to not wet the poppies, or the colors will begin to bleed. Let dry.

4. Create the card base with pale yellow cardstock, cut to 8 1/2″ x 8.”

5. Apply VersaMark ink to the top and bottom of the card base.

6. Sprinkle Frozen Ice Tinsel on to the wet ink, tap off the excess, and heat set.

7. Adhere the painted card front on to the base with Zip Dry Glue.

I like that this stamp has a collage look to it, without all of the steps. It’s a great time saver. I’ll have my latest tutorial for Imagine tomorrow. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
