- Autumn Poppy Field

 Alison Bomber stamps - Poppy and Grasses Editions

Welcome Fall CVC #2 September 

1. Start working on the bottom half of the card first.
2. Make watery puddles of antique linen and vintage photo, dip card and dry several times.
3. Using iced spruce and hickory smoke repeat the same process as above on the top half of the card.
4. In the background dip in a little bundle sage and dry.
5. Dab vintage photo, aged mahogany and gathered twigs closely together on a craft mat and spritz with water. Tap stamp into the colours and stamp onto the card and dry. Repeat to create a collection of poppy seed heads.
6. Use masking paper and stamp the poppy heads enough times to cover all the stamped images. When they are covered stamp grasses using different brown and green oxide inks. Dry.
7. Remove masks and use black and white drawing pens to emphasize shapes, outlines and details of the poppies.
