Flowers of the Month July Thru December

It's the third Wednesday of the month and that brings us
to a new challenge theme at

Double D Challenges
and PART 2 of  our
Flowers of The Month theme!

For this challenge we want to see any flowers
July thru December!
There is an awesome mood board and
a list of flowers to get you inspired!

Flowers of the Month - July thru December

July Larkspur~Delphinium, or Water Lily
August Poppy or Gladiolus
September Aster or Morning Glory
October Cosmos or Marigold
November Chrysanthemum
December Paper White Narcissus or Holly


I have a few different poppy stamp sets and went with one
that I have had for quite some time
JustRite  'Poppies Labels Twenty Nine' which are now out of business.
I have had these in my stash for many years now
about time they made an appearance!


I embossed a Sizzix paper background
that seemed the perfect color for my poppies
then colored the poppies in with Copics.

The little poppies sentiment is stamped on a  
Cheery Lynn Designs Tags 4 which I added a little hemp bow to.

Ready to really get inspired?
Then head on over to Double D and see all the amazing
'field of flowers' the Design Team has in store for you!

Beautiful Diane! I always like Just Rite Stamps. I have a few that will never go out of style, like your beautiful poppies.

So bright and elegant! Poppies are a favorite this time of year. Love the die cut background. Beautiful coloring and cute tag sentiment. I have a few JR stamps in my stash too. Didn't know they were no longer in business.

How gorgeously coloured are these poppies, love them and love your style Diane. I'd love to see a photo of your garden full of larkspur flowers. xxx

Oooh, more red and white! Gorgeous! I love your JustRite poppies, and really, I always love seeing the oldies come out to play. You did a beautiful job on this, Diane!

Barbara said...

I think poppies are my favorite and I’m glad to see that you took these out to play. You really should do that more often.

Good for you using an old stamp set, I am doing same. Very pretty and thoughtful card. While I have a ton of flower stamps, most of them are named only "flowers", but I do have a few poppy and morning glory and a gladioli! Have a lotus but not a water lily (I researched!) Anyway, the Double D flower challenges have been a fun learning experience for me because I am probably the world's worst flower identifier. XOX

I love that poppy image, it's so realistic. Your coloring is beautiful and I really like that you did just the red and white. Always a winner.

Such a crisp and beautiful card. Love the layout and the colours, so very pretty Diane.
