Always In My Heart



I used a Poppy Stamps die to cut the poppies out of orange, dark green and light green cardstock.  The sentiment (stamp unknown) was stamped with Black Stazon onto cream colored paper.  I used a Spellbinders Nestabilities oval die to cut out the sentiment.  I outlined the oval with a gold leaf Krylon pen.  The butterfly is a Starform sticker.  Everything was mounted on a pre-embossed DCWV white card.  The negative spaces in the butterfly were colored in with bright pink and orange Prismacolor pencils.

This makes a great sympathy card and the poppies are a reminder of our veterans who are commemorated on the Memorial Day weekend.
