Wow lovely Bloggers - doesn't Christmas come and go in a flash! It seems like only yesterday I was decorating the tree, and now it's almost time to take it down, which always makes me feel rather sad (Awwww)!!
Anyway, I hope you are ready to join us at ATCAS, for our very first Challenge of 2014!
Our lovely Hostess is the very talented Loll who has chosen this Code Word .....
So, we would like you to use Die(s), and, as always, the design must be
Clean and Simple, with plenty of open space!
Here is my DT card - do pop over to ATCAS to see what the talented Teamies have created, and leave them some lurve!
PrimPoppyWMK(1).jpg)
I have used the Memory Box Prim Poppy die and a Spellbinders Small Classic Squares die.
The colouring behind the aperture was created on a separate piece of white cardstock, using Distress inks, then lightly spritzed with water.
I die-cut one Poppy from a left-over piece of the inked card, and placed it on the left.
A second Poppy was cut from white cardstock and placed inside the aperture.
The sentiment stamp is another of my old, all-time faves - from PSX (1999), inked with SU Smoky Slate - a beautiful soft colour.
Our generous Sponsor is Deedees Digis - the winner will receive 3 Digi sets of their own choice. Deedee has some amazing digi images, and it's well worth
popping over there to take a peek!

This is so dramatic looking, I love how the flowers are coloured on the outside and not against the coloured background, such a stunning look x
Stunning, Sylvia ... the most gorgeous colours and perfect balance ... I love it! Anita :)
I have to say I simply adore this card, the delicate coloring and the beautiful dies are just a match made in heaven. I feel sad too when the tree comes down ours has know to survive until the end of January lol !

I just came across this beautiful card again, Sylvia, and wondered if I had actually stopped to comment and I don't see that I did. I don't want that oversight to continue because this is one of the most gorgeous cards I have ever had the pleasure of seeing! Your design and execution are just breathtaking!! Hugs, Darnell
This is absolutely stunning. Beautiful
Hi Sylvia ... I just wanted to add my own two cents to your absolutely gorgeous card! I'm obsessed with the design and have made similar ones but your's is by far the best! Thanks so much for the inspiration. You are a genius! :-)
Just found this on Pinterest and can I just say STUNNING!
