Sweet Poppy Stencils "Sweet Pea" Card



Father's Day is just around the corner.  Sadly my Dad is no longer with us and I miss him every day.  His favourite flower was the "Sweet Pea", so I decided to make a card for him regardless.

I have used the Sweet Poppy Stencils "Botanical Sweet Pea" stamp, stamped in second generation stamping using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.  

I coloured the image using Derwent Inktense pencils, applied with a brush and a white gel pen.

I used the Sweet Poppy "Hugs and Kisses" stamp, stamped in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, then finally added three white dots, using Ranger "Enamel Accents".

  2. These are really pretty Sweet Peas Sam, and it's a beautiful card in memory of your Dad and some wonderful colouring with the gel pen highlights and love the added little white dots. My Dad died when I was forty and that's over thirty years ago now, but I think about him all the time. He loved to grow Sweet Peas, and he wasn't bad at arranging them in a vase quite artistically too. x
