this is absolutely gorgeous, Cherie!!!! how did you do the back ground? How long did this take you? I LOVE POPPIES:)))
Cherie Dirksen in reply to lareejc’s comment

Glad you like it, lareejc. It took me about 3 days all told. The background is a bit tricky and I do get a bit cross-eyed doing it…LOL…it is all done with acrylic paint and liners.

really nice work…love the detail and the textured look to them…very tactile…great on their own and great together x
Cherie Dirksen in reply to Andy Gibb’s comment

Thanks, Andy…it is very tactile, I almost impaled myself on the background this morning…maybe a bit of an exageration but I did prick my finger when I touched it…lol :)
