I belong to an amazing group on Facebook, Fully Visible. This group is demonstrators supporting each other by weekly commenting on each others posts. There is 14 groups and each group has 5 demos in them. We have a rotation we follow to know whos page to comment on that week. To further this engagement, I started a collage/sampler swap. This past month it is the Peaceful Poppies. They were to use Poppy Parade as the base color then the second layer could be dsp or cardstock of choice and then add your elements. These elements can be anything from die cuts, embossing, water coloring or etc. There was 4 of us in this swap.
Click on their names to see if they have posted their Collage/Sampler on their page. The middle row is from Chris and she took the word "happiness" and broke it down into three's to create her items. I thought that was quite clever.
Here are closeups of the elements

I loved how each of these pieces turned out! The background is SOOO pretty!
Next up is this gorgeous card made by Pamela Berry. She wrote a very thoughtful note inside and she will also be participating in the next collage/sampler swap.
This card I made at onstage, this uses the tone on tone stamping and coloring of the ribbon.
This set is very versatile and beautiful to create with. If you love this set you can click on the pictures below to order. You can buy the complete suite or just the ones you want. I hope we have inspired you.

A poppy is a flowering plant in the subfamily papaveroideae of the family papaveraceae. Poppies are herbaceous plants, often grown for their colourful flowers. One species of poppy, papaver somniferum, is the source of the narcotic drug opium which contains powerful medicinal alkaloids such as morphine and has been used since ancient times as an analgesic and narcotic medicinal and recreational drug. It also produces edible seeds. Most people today know of the poppy as a symbol of remembrance of the soldiers who died during wartime because of the trench warfare in the poppy fields of Flanders, Belgium during World War I.
Every year when the veterans take donations, they give you a poppy flower to wear. As long as I can remember I have always donated to help our veterans out. The poppy is a reminder that many gave their lives in the first world war we were ever in. This set is beautiful and would be great for any occasion. I plan on making many of these cards to hand out to the veterans at my grandmothers nursing home to show them that they are not forgotten.
