Lulu Loves Her Poppies

Hey guys, have you seen the new Lulu stamps from Stamping Bella available over at Quixotic Paperie? I instantly fell in love as soon as I saw them and being a little partial to poppy images I could not resist Lulu Loves Poppies.

She arrived on my doorstep yesterday - Thanks Elaine! - and I had to ink her up immediately so I've made a little ATC with her.


You might want to check out the other Lulus - so lovely!

Do you recognise the background? I've used the same sweet wrapper background I used for my poppy make tutorial. I've obviously strongly associated poppies to this background LOL! Funny how that can happen sometimes!

We are having a Potterthon this weekend watching all the Harry Potter films before going to see the last one. I've just finished re-reading all the books again as well. If you've seen the last film already don't tell me what happens! LOL!

    Lulu is indeed special but only in the hands of someone who knows how to make her even more so . Perfectly coloured image but your layout is amazing and a piece of art, can you tell I love this.
