This post brings to you an inspiration card for the Sketch Challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #361. Working into my 3rd month as a Design Team member and still loving every bit of it. I am getting into a floral groove it would seem lately, so here we go with the Peaceful Poppies and Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper. Why not mix poppies and lilies?

The sentiment is from another stamp set in my stash, it just really seemed to work with this design, it is stamped in Blackberry Bliss and cut with a stitched rectangle Die. I chose to go with Blackberry Bliss as my dominant color, while the poppy is Petal Pink and Rococo Rose. I think this pattern from the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper really pulls all these colors together. Inside the card is a field of poppies, stamped in Blackberry Bliss and colored with Rococo Rose Stampin’ Blends Combo pack.

Thanks again for stopping by and spending a bit of your time with me. I hope you enjoyed learning about how this card came together. Hopefully you were even inspired just a bit. Below are pictured links to all the items used for this card, click the link of the item to be taken to my online store where you can learn more about each item. If you would like to learn more about this challenge or to see what other talented designers have created for this challenge, hop on over to CAS Colours & Sketches. I will return soon with something new. Until then, stay safe, and by all means keep crafting, exploring and creating. See you soon.

The racoon in the Special Someone Stamp set has also won my heart. I have both stamp sets and I am so excited to see the coordinating dies. There is a Designer Series Paper Pack that will work with several of the bundles from the Mini-Catalog and the flower punch from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Gotta check these items out!!
