The press plate was inked with the BetterPress black ink, then pressed into an A2 size Porcelain cotton card panel using the BetterPress System, resulting in black negative space. Distress inks (DI), blending brushes and the coordinating stencil set were then used to colour the images.
Di used:
poppies - Abandoned Coral, Lumberjack Plaid, Black Soot
stems/leaves - Lost Shadow
To cover up splotchy areas where the ink did not press well, ink blending with Black Soot DI was done to “fill” in the gaps. Die cut the sentiment from white shimmer paper and its shadow from black cardstock before assembling the card onto a white card base. Added dot details to the poppy centers with a white gel pen to finish.

Gorgeous card in honor of our Veterans. The red poppies pop off the card against the black background, and I really like the gray leaves. Thanks for sharing your lovely card with us at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge.
