Lest We Forget. On this Remembrance Day, I would like to thank my Brother Dale Eisnor, our armed forces personnel and their families for the sacrifices that they have made for my freedom and I dedicate this Lest We Forget Card to them.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fold the Real Red CS in half and crease it using a Bone Folder. The fold should be along the top.
2. Adhere the Basic Black CS to the Real Red Card Base using Stampin’ Seal.
3. Swipe the Embossing Buddy over the Real Red CS. Ink up the largest Poppy Stamp using VersaMark Ink. Stamp it onto the Real Red CS. Hold the Real Red CS over the Powder Pal. Pour the Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder over the wet VersaMark. Repeat these steps and stamp another large Poppy and 1 small Poppy. Tap off the excess Emboss Powder. Once all of the Poppies are complete, using the brush, brush all of the Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder down to the opening in the Powder Pal and out of the hole into the Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder jar.
4. Cut out the Poppies using the corresponding Painted Label Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine OR Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.
5. You don’t need to ink up the actual Poppy at the top of this stamp, so I put a piece of Scotch Tape over this part. Ink up the Stem, Leaves & Bud using Tuxedo Black Memento. REMOVE THE SCOTCH TAPE before you stamp onto the Basic White CS.
6. Colour the Buds using Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blend and Stem and Leaves using Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend
7. Adhere the Basic White CS to the Card Base using Stampin’ Seal.
8. Adhere the Poppies to the Card Base using Stampin’ Dimensionals
9. I used the computer to add the Lest We Forget wording
