This morning's crafting

First thing this morning I said that I would make my inchies for the BF forum, do my pages in the next CJ and make some family birthday cards ... so, what did I do? I made a sympathy card, having seen today's challenge on DCM: A time to remember - asking us to include a poppy.

I've used the sketch on Sketch Saturday 128:

For the background I used a scrap left over from my card for Ooh La La challenge 66 as a Guest Designer - the paper is from the Ooh La La's Watercolour memories CD 'Poppy farm. I used a scrap of BG paper for the sentiment and embossed strip, using a cuttlebug folder and distressing with DI fired brick. So I'm linking this as another card for the 'remember, remember' challenge on Ooh La La.

The poppy stamps are PM and I've coloured with copics.

This is also for:
