Hello and welcome to The Challenge # 22. This week we have an especially beautiful color combination:

I have a soft spot for all things "poppies", and this set by Clearly Besotted had to come home with me as soon as I saw it! I stamped the sentiment on sticky back linen by Claudine Helmuth Studios by Ranger Ink. As you can see from the picture I was even able to impress the linen backing using a stitched metal die! I am loving the way my card turned out, and I hope you like it too! I hope you'll play along with us at The Challenge!
