I used Poppy Trio by PB for my central image on this card as it is beautiful and very versatile. I think water colouring it gave it a lovely soft look which I struggle to do when using Promarkers. I inked the doily die cut edges and added foam pads to give it a bit of a lift from the background paper. I love the simplicity and the focus is on the lovely poppies. A sentiment and some thin ribbon finished it off and it turned out just as I wanted it.
Now over to the

The soft lilacs you have used give a lovely delicate feel to your pretty card Shirley.

So beautifully colored Shirley! Love the clean design, you are right, such a gorgeous stamp does not need a lot of extras surrounding it and should be the focal point!
