Here is the first flower:
How beautiful is that?
I decided to mark the occasion by using Blue Poppies as the main focus in a card. Now, I did try to replicate the colour but my beloved watercolour pencils ( and me) were unable to capture the luminosity of this fabulous flower.
I downloaded a free digital stamp from here and a font from my computer for the sentiment. I used a Stampin up! border punch to add interest to the turquoise mat.

A beautiful card Lilian, your colouring is lovely. Xx
A beautiful card. You have done a fabulous job of colouring the poppies.
Congratulations on the first flower of your blue poppy. It is gorgeous
Well I think you've done a pretty good job at matching the colours of both your fabulous 'real life' bloom and those on the card.
A perfectly stunning card and thanks for taking part.
