Hi, all! I have a card to share using one of the Power Poppy stamp sets on sale starting today. Just in case you didn't see the announcement yesterday, it's part of a huge sale starting at NOON today.

So here is my card using the Power Poppy Azalea stamp set:
~
So have you ever seen azaleas with those colors? I had not until I visited a friend's house last weekend. Around a large live oak tree are 5 azalea bushes; 4 white and 1 hot pink. However over the years, the white flowers have evolved/hybrid into different patterns of white with pink striations and dots. Some of the branches even have solid pink flowers among the white ones. Just beautiful!

So of course, I had to try my hand at imitating nature!
There are quite of few of the fabulously talented Power Poppy design team members posting their creations using some of the stamp sets on sale today as well. Be sure to head on over to the Power Poppy blog to get the links.
I'm also entering my card into this week's Paper Players challenge #PP482:

Broni, you did an amazing job of recreating these fancy azaleas. How even knew that those colors existed.

Holy Snowflakes!!! Your card looks like it has REAL flowers on it! You and them Copics are just magic. GORGEOUS and your gray shadows set this off perfectly. You truly captured those azaleas in your friend’s yard. What an inspiring way to start my weekend. Happy Spring!

Wow Broni, this is so beautiful. Your imitation of nature is almost nature itselfs.
Thank you so much for sharing your inspiration and have a wonderful day.

This is such a fabulous card Broni! You really captured the azaleas and the layout and pop of colour is perfection! Gorgeous work!

Oh, my gosh, not only is this such a beautiful card, but it's so interesting about the azaleas! I think my next azaleas will be white so I can see if they do anything interesting like this, seeing as how I have many other azaleas in pinks and reds. Thank you so much for sharing both your card and the picture!
