Peaceful Poppies Thank You card

Hello everyone.

It seems appropriate to use the beautiful Peaceful Poppies designer series paper for my card today, the 75th anniversary of VE Day. Poppies are a symbol of Remembrance and very appropriate for a card to thank everyone that sacrificed so much for our peace.

My card is just a very small gesture of our huge gratitude…

To make this card I cut Whisper White Thick card to measure 29 x 10.5 cm then scored and folded at 14.5 cm. I then cut a piece of Poppy Parade card to measure 10 x 14 cm and some Peaceful Poppies paper to measure 9.5 x 13.5 cm. Before adding the top layers to the card base I added one of the Pearlized Doilies that I’d cut in half, a strip of Poppy Parade card and some Poppy Parade ribbon, securing one end of the ribbon on the back of the card layer.

I stamped the sentiment from the Modern Heart stamp set with Poppy Parade ink onto Whisper White card and cut it with the Story Label punch. I used the same punch on some more Poppy Parade card, cut it in half lengthwise and added it to the back of the stamped one. I added this to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Finally I added 3 blue gems from the Holiday Rhinestones pack…

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s card.
