Just a little reminder that you still have lots of time to share your favorite flower with us at The Flower Challenge #56!
Here's another of my favorites, which I was reminded of while playing cards with a friend yesterday - a flower that causes us to remember those we've lost: Poppies!
Another set borrowed from my friend - a beauty from Penny Black.
I simply stamped it onto water color card, and added lots of doodling with a Copic fine liner pen.
It's quite alright to have more than one favorite flower - and to play along more than once! Be sure to follow the rules given at The Flower Challenge blog, of course. Hope to see you there!

So pretty! Love all of the little black details you doodled!
I love the artsy way in which you have doodled the beautiful poppies Michele x. A thoughtful card with a great sentiment too x.
Oh! I thought you stamped the outline image and colored it! It's the other way around :)! Awesome doodling! I love orange poppies!!! Have a lovely weekend!
Your doodling really brings out the detail in the flowers, Michele. Is that your sentiment? If not where did it come from?
Oh I love that soft stamping, a lovely contrast to the clear crisp stamping of our poppy yesterday. What a brilliant idea to use a fineliner to add the detail. I also love how your red and green have blended in a few spots beautiful xx
Since poppy is my state's flowers, love that you love them, too. The doodling over this lovely stamp is amazing. Your artistic brilliance is shining.
Love the sketchy coloured look of these blooms Michele, it totally changes the whole look of the design!
Gorgeous poppies, Michele. Another of my favorite flowers. Loved your watercolored technique and CAS design. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
Goodness, what a lot I missed this last fortnight, Michele ... as ever, each of your cards is a little work of art, no matter the style! These vibrant poppies are dreamy ... soft and drifty ... and your doodling is fabulous ... it brings them to life! Hugs, Anita :)
Lovely, lovely card Michele, and I love all the black doodling you added...soooo pretty!! As I sat there staring at your card it hit me that I don't think I ever used that stamp yet...shame on me! You made it shine so I guess I better get my act in gear and use it sometime!! Hugs. :0)
Oh the good Lord gave us so many flowers to admire, I'm so happy I don't have to pick just one as a favorite. These poppies are among my favorites. And that sentiment. You sure know how to choose a wonderful sentiment. Thanks for sharing.
This is so pretty! Very artistic and dreamy.
Hellooooooooooo! I have been swamped with all kinds of things and I'm so happy to have a little time to visit. I love poppies as well, and yes, they always put me in mind of those we've lost. And the Wizard of Oz. If I had the time, I could enter this one many, many times. My very fave is freesia. And oh, I do have a freesia stamp. Maybe I can squeeze in a little time to make something with it. Your stamped and doodled image is gorgeous. I love the blotchy effect of the the ink on the watercolor paper.
Very pretty!
What can be better than a poppy? A field of poppies! So pretty, Michele, and beautifully colored!
Beautiful watercoloured poppies Michele! Just the perfect sentiment to go with your lovely card! xx
Lovely poppies, Michele! Stamping on watercolor paper gives the card a special effect, and I love that. Your hand-drawn outlining and dotting is just perfect for the heartfelt sentiment.

Pretty poppies. they are such a lovely flower.
Great doodling my friend... you are an all rounder and I love seeing your creations... wishing you a fabulous week
Love your reminder card, so pretty Michele!
Beautiful card, I just adore that image! And to use the poppies in remembrance of a friend, beautiful indeed!
This is even prettier in person, my friend! Thank you. It was my pleasure.
