DeleteWell done, yes poppies seen to be the in thing, love the centre

Thank you. :) With the 100th year celebrations for WWI (over the next 4 years!) I think we'll continue to see poppies trending...
DeleteReally great flower!!! :) Sometimes I think imperfect means "looks more like the real thing"! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! :) I think it definitely resembles a real poppy in some ways, so I'm happy enough with it :)
DeleteHow did I miss this earlier? I blame work :) Beautiful tribute- lovely work too :)
