The Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge - Poppies for Memorial Day

Hi everyone!  It's time for another challenge from The Sisterhood of Crafters.  This week I'm excited to be your host. With Memorial Day just a few days away, the challenge is to create a project using poppies.  Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day set aside to remember and honor those men and women who died while serving their country in the military.  The poppy was inspired by the World War I poem, "In Flanders Fields" written by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae.

Stamp Sets:  Painted Poppy (Altenew), Pick A Pennant (Stampin' Up!)

Inks:  Poppy Seed, Guava, Lime Zest, Peapod (Taylored Expressions)

Distress Ink:  Vintage Photo (Tim Holtz)

Cardstock:  Poppy Parade (Stampin' Up!), Sugar Cube, Oreo (Taylored Expressions)
