| Poppy Coffee Card |
Hi friends have you ever jumped to buy something and then let it sit for months without using it? Well in my case I bought this beautiful
Poppy Stamps "Iceland Poppy"flower die set nearly a year ago and this is the first time I am using it!

| Coffee and Poppy Card |
The fun thing about this die is that you can make a
dimensional yet flat flower[hehe that is a contradiction of sorts but I think my crafty friends will know what I mean!]! I diecut the petals in thick kraft paper and dotted pattern paper and glued the pattern paper diecuts on the kraft diecuts offsetting a little to get a cool margin.

I am so glad I hoarded this cute
cup with a heart charm as it goes perfectly with the sentiment I used " warm hearts"!
The woodgrain background was created using a gorgeous stamp from Winnie and Walter. The copper spoon is another craft item I had been hoarding and waiting to use on the right project!

What can I say Sonia other than it's a Poppy so ticks all the right boxes for me and what a beauty it is as well with the dimension.

Thank you Brenda...I struggled with this particular die...we dont have that many poppies in the wild here in India and I had to keep looking at pictures to get the flower right!!
DeleteI do that all the time. I buy things because I love them in the store but then when I get them home I don't do anything with them.
ReplyDeleteI love the color scheme for this
I now maintain a list in evernote software so that I can keep a track of the items I have yet to use. The number of "not used" is slowly coming down but requires herculean and conscious effort I must say!!
DeleteAbsolutely gorgeous with dotted red and combo of gold! And love the striking poppies growing in a pretty cup Sonia, love it!
ReplyDeleteHehe I was pleased with the idea myself Vinita...I just wanted to use that flower die by hook or crook!!
Deletegorgeous die cutting...love your project.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Sonia...love the colors...
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so sweet, Sonia! The background looks amazing! Wow! I love, love this! So gorgeous! Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteThe poppies are strickingly beautiful ! love the creation and all the little details in it ! I can totally relate to buying something and not use it :P Totally looks like you are ready for christmas with these colours <3

I am somewhat of a frugal crafter like you Sharada and I try to be careful what I buy but when one has been a crafter for years and someone like me who likes to try all kinds of crafts...supplies and materials tend to pile up. I eased the guilt and storage woes by doing a thorough de-clutter recently.Now I am on a mission to put to use every die and stamp that is lying unused!
DeleteLove this awesome coffee card! The colors are perfect together!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card.Beautiful poppy with the dimension.Love the embellishments.
ReplyDeleteGr,Sylvia.
I cleaned out my craft room a few months ago and I have vowed to use my "stash" too my friend.
ReplyDeleteThis card is just beautiful!

Your card is beautiful! You used a lot of my favorite color...RED. :) I never get tired of seeing your pretty work. (And yes I buy crafty things too and wait a LONG time before they are used....but eventually they do!) ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, Sonia!! Your dimensional flat poppy is gorgeous and I'm adding that die to my wish-list!! I love the papers you used and the details!! I buy things and forget them, too...I need to take after you and use them!! Have a great day!! Big hugs :)
