Background Poppies Sympathy

Today's card features a 'new to me' stamp by Hero Arts called 'Background Poppies' that I received for Christmas. I inked it up with 'Twilight' ink (by Versafine), and stamped it on to a snippet of smooth card...repeating the process a few times to get a really saturated image. Once dry, I stamped a sentiment (from the 'Go To Words' set by Visible Image) over the top using Versamark Ink, then heat embossed it in gold. I trimmed it down, then matted it on to a snippet of gold mirror card before adding it to my card blank.
