Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I made a card for Creative with Stamps Challenge last month, but ended up not posting it.
So, I thought I would share it anyway...

I stamped "Happy" several times, without re-inking, on a panel. I distressed the edges and adhered it to card base.
I cut some poppies, using CTMH Flower Market Cricut Cartrige, colored them with alcohol-based makers and adhered them on card.
I added washi tape at the bottom and some Dimensional Magic Glitter - Gold on the flowers.

1. Double D: Flowers Galore
