You may have hopped here from Nikki's blog or you may be starting the hop here but regardless I know you will be flawed by the Design Team's creations for our annual hop.

I wanted to use a new set for my project so I chose the Painted Poppies from the new January-June 2020 Mini Catalogue. With a thick Whisper White card base I popped in a Purple Posy layer to set off the watercoloured background. Not having the matching DSP yet this gave me a chance to play with colours for my poppies and I ended up using Blackberry Bliss and Blushing Bride, with Granny Apple Green for the leaves. I've set the colours off with some gold accents and the gorgeous Flax ribbon.

  2. Not having all the toys is a bummer but the result is perhaps better. The splatter, use of vellum and choice of colors makes this one unique and gorgeous.
