Good morning!
I wanted to use the same sentiment as a couple of posts ago but get a different look and then I saw my inspiration at Fusion for a field full of flowers. While the poppy is a great flower for "remembrance", I wanted to use a background that was more muted and calming, since it will be another Sympathy card (yep, I need another one folks...). As you can see, I used the photo only, not the sketch ~
I used an NBUS stamp set (NBUS #13), white embossed images onto water color paper then did some basic coloring. To highlight the twig in the lower center and the dandelion seeding, I water colored around the basic image. I cut an almost full vellum sheet, embossed the sentiment and hid my tape under the major portions of the sentiment to attach it to the card.
Here's a close-up of that shine !
