Wow, Pam, that spray it a great
job in coloring the crepe paper.
I LOVE how the entire collage came
out. It's really terrific!

LOL - I had to look at mine to find the "pink". That photo is so flash-burned (even though I didn't use a flash). I seriously need to scan it...

Ha ha! Ok, now I see it is red. It really looked pink from where I was sitting!

Thanks ladies
I went to a how to draw poppies site, that helped

I need instructions to draw LOL. You just start with a disk shape then rub it out later. I know now to do the disk light next time,

I decided to frame my one and only poppy. I used some other paper to add some paint, a little bit of yellow obviously then some green and red...Coloured but not quite finished.,, I want to add words but still waiting for the right stamp to do that, so this is it for now. Thanks for pushing me
