Delicious Doodles Challenge - Friday 30 August 2013 - Anything Floral

Today is the last Friday in August and sees the last challenge where Team A and Team B have joined together as a number of Design Team members have taken time off for the summer holidays.  The challenge this week is "anything floral".

For my card I have used the Delicious Doodles imaged called "Remembrance".  I have also used a freebie poppies paper that Teri put on the Delicious Doodles Shop in November 2012.  I have coloured the image in with my Promarkers.  I have used an embossing folder to add a bit of dimension.  Instead of rubbing the ink pad on the embossing folder before putting it through my machine I decided to try adding the ink with my Inkylicious brushes.  I love the more subtle effect this gives and will certainly use it again.  I used Tim Holtz's Peeled Paint distress ink pad.  I have cut out some of the poppies from another piece of paper to use as embellishments - but of course had to ink around the edge of all the poppy embellishments as I hate to see white edges.  The card has then just been finished off with some satin edged organza ribbon.
