A Painted Poppies Birthday Card
Maybe its because the designer series paper is watercolor painting, or maybe its just the stamp set name, Painted Poppies, but I wanted one of my first cards with this set to be done with watercoloring.
First I selected this fun blue-background print from the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper. I wanted a bright, fun card and this paper fits the bill. The poppies in the DSP are colored in Poppy Parade and Flirty Flamingo, so those are the colors I chose for my painting.

Don’t Miss the Mercury Glass Designer Acetate
Don’t miss this hidden gem in the Holiday Catalog! It’s hidden away in the bottom corner of page 33. You get four 12″ x 12″ acetate sheets with a faux mercury glass finish. Two have that mottled look you are familiar with and two have more of a cracked glass finish.
It caught my eye because I have several pieces of faux mercury glass (mostly vases) in my house. I ordered it early but I’ve just recently started playing with it.
This card features it as a simple background and its the easiest way to use it.
