Poppy
Hi bloggers! This post is dedicated to the Layered Poppy. I just love poppies so these were a must to be included in this release! While Poppies come in a range of colours, the red poppy is the one that is so iconic so I just had to use it here. This set has twelve dies in it, with two sizes and styles of flowers, several styles of leaves and buds and flower centres. Without a doubt this is a go to for so many occasions so I am sure that you are going to want to try to win this set as well as all the others! Just leave a comment on this post and then pop back by for the final post of the day at 6pm. All for now Sue x
Good afternoon Sue, Another beautiful card & again so true to life, the red poppy is the most iconic but would also look beautiful in other colour ways. Yvonne xx
Stunning post and without a doubt my favourite of the flowers so far. Poppies can come in so many different colours but this post in the traditional red is gorgeous. This die set has hit the top spot of my want list so far....
Hi Sue - this is stunning too, I just love poppies, so I’m going to *need* this set too! I think my credit card is preparing for a lie down lol! Colleen xx
Another beautiful set of flowers. You can’t beat a red poppy. The card is gorgeous I love the jewelled scalloped border and it looks perfect here. Your poppies look like they have been crocheted. Very impressive.
My favourite flowers are poppies & alstroemerias so very happy to see one of my favourites in the launch. This is a beautiful card with the lovely trellis border & the red poppies do brighten our day. I have some black poppies to sow this year but I don’t think you can beat traditional red. Thank you Sue.
Afternoon Sue and all Wilsonettes, what can I say, this must be the icing on the cake, the poppies mean so much to so many people, myself included, I can remember my Mum & Dad talking about the 1939-1945 years. They were so proud and the poppy is the symbol for us all to remember everyone who was there. A great big gold star Sue for this one. I also like that you have used some of the recent dies along the edges. xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue What a fabulous launch this is!!! I adore poppies. Although these look complicated, I’m sure they aren’t once you give it a go! Love Sam Salter xxxxxxx
I love the "frilly" layers of the poppies and the distinctive leaves and buds. The red poppy is my favorite color of all the poppies. The design of this card with the border die "pointing" to the poppy flowers is just beautiful. I love red, white and green together. Lovely card! It would certainly brighten my day to receive a card like this and know someone is thinking of me. Hugs.
Hello Sue, Wow. This is my favourite so far. Poppies are such an iconic flower and these layered dies show it off in all its beauty. Tooth Fairy Jo. xxx
Awwww... Amazing poppies set! Very dimensional and perfect for a lot of projects! Love the design of the leaves, so realistic! A must have for sure! Your card show them very well with that clean and classy design!
Evening Sue, Beautiful card and very intricate dies. Are you going to be doing videos on these dies. Getting to see Jamie demonstrate isn't necessarily easy as I've noticed some of his shows can't be seen on replay the last few times I looked. Pity. Still follow yours blog every morning when I get on computer. A
Ah yes, the poppy - it is so evocative, isn't it? And the poppy seed heads are so striking too. This is a very serene card, the red so striking against the white. Jomada-Dawn
