Hello! I am so happy to be here on this challenge for you! Can you believe that it is February? It was a busy month in January and now we are looking at Valentine's month. Certainly, crafty people think of it that way and that made me think of a challenge for you! I know that we all associate Valentine's Day with hearts, so let's think outside the (candy hearts) box and use no hearts at all.
HOW TO PLAY: Make a card, you should be able to recognize it as a valentine, but use something other than a heart. I can think of lots of things that you can find in the Power Poppy shop. Cherries, berries, red poppies, red roses or any flower. Use your Valentine colors or any color that makes you think Valentine!
On to my creation!
I chose the strawberries from the digital set called Cherries and Berries. Just by using red and a red gingham panel, it was already looking like a Valentine! I just needed to change the sentiment. I used the phrase from Juicy Strawberries' digital stamp set and changed the word Friend to Valentine. It was easy!

Theresa played along in our Life Imitating Art challenge and was inspired by a Georgia O'Keefe print to create this beauty above. You might not be able to tell, but she mixed the Ultimate Poppy (no line version) and Juicy Strawberries digital sets to and then printed them on a background of green leaves. She added a little color to the poppy's petals to add a little more dimension. Wow! Check out all the details and even a second creation HERE!

ReplyDeleteAHmazing! Look at how real and juicy your strawberries look! YUMMY! Your coloring and accents are spot on, so realistic! WOW! My mouth is watering! Well done, Barb!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Theresa, it's a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteYour card is stunning Barbara, It looks like the strawberries are on the card instead of being a stamped image. What a great colouring work.
Nice challenge.
Thank you so much for your inspiring post and have a wonderful week.
As stated by Stanford Medical, It is indeed the one and ONLY reason this country's women live 10 years longer and weigh an average of 42 pounds lighter than we do.

BTW, What I said is "HOW", not "what"...
