Today is Remembrance Day. This seemed appropriate.
I've used First Love, First Hero and part of the sentiment Remember This. The poppies I watercoloured with distress ink and a black sharpie pen for the centers. The black and white background was made using a stencil for the circle pattern and then the edge of some scrap card with black and white acrylic paint.
