On to my creation!
It is hysterical. I had no idea (maybe it was subliminal) that when I made my card using the new Sunny Harvest Set that I would match Power Poppy's signature green and orange colors! But hey, I like it! I stamped this beautiful Chinese Lantern using Memento Espresso Truffle Ink on Cougar Opaque White Card Stock and then using my Copic Markers to color it all up! I used YR09, YR01, R14, Y32, Y21, YR00, E23, E25, E27, YG21, YG00, YG23, YG25, G20, G21, G24 AND G28. I used E81 to shade around my image and blended with a blender pen.
The rest is just matting it all up! The decorative paper is a mix of BasicGrey and Stampin' Up. I added a little Stampin' Up ribbon for the band of color and used a SU punch for my sentiment (which is also a part of the set) Add some Teresa Collins Enamel Dots for color and some paper piercing and... ta da! Done! Oh, I almost forgot, I did sponge some Antique Linen Distress Ink around the main image panel and my sentiment.
Here's a close up!
And that, my friends is it! Be sure to hop on over to see the rest of the Bloom Brigade! And again, don't forget -- all of these sets are ready for the taking HERE over at the Power Poppy Shop!

Enjoy your weekend! I'm off to watch a basketball tournament, which means I'll have no voice on Monday -- YES, I support my team vocally! ;-) See you back here very soon!

Julie this is fabulous! The colours are stunning done this way - and a fab nod to Power Poppy :) Gorgeous work on this design!
I’m the same way - my boys always know I’m cheering for them! Enjoy the weekend! Go E!
Um hello?!?! Pure gorgeousness! I just LOVE this card Julie! Bold green, fabulous design and an amazingly coloured image! Wow... incredibly stunning my friend!
We have a Scouts parade float to make and show off and then off to family Scout camp! Have a great weekend!
Love how you used the Power Poppy colors even if not planned. Beautiful card!
Oh, Julie, what a funny thing...using the PP colors! You're right, and they are perfect! I LOVE this image, and you've really colored it so beautifully!! And with the beautiful green paper and ribbon (along with the great piercing, which I always love), it's perfect! And what a perfect sentiment! I love it, and I can't wait to play with this set. It's definitely one of my faves for this release! Hugs, and thanks!!
Julie I L-O-V-E this!!! I would've never in a million thought to color those Chinese Lanterns up this way, but they look a-mazing! And hey, it' an added bonus that they have the signature Power Poppy colors, right? ;) Girl, every piece of paper you touch turns into something amazing....seriously! :)
OOoooo I love your color combo! BEAUTIFUL card!
Really love the lanterns in green! We can make them green? I haven't begun to research them yet. Great design here, Julie. This is the cutest sentiment, too!
Julie your colouring is just stunning!! Love your Green Lanterns and all the paper piercing - the sentiment is perfect too!
Julie, your cards are always so beautiful!! I just looked again on the Power Poppy blog, and as far as I can tell; the last Friday "Peep of the Week" was missed! Just wanted you and the team to know. Thanks...I always look forward to playing along in the challenges when I can!!
