Since I love poppies, I am sure Mimi will as well. Excellent work here creating the flowers and leaves standing out in bold relief against the muted and textured background!

I've never been one for the opiates myself; but maybe that's the key to these wonderful images you create Lori, :)
A beautiful looking image with wonderful colours and textures. A great birthday gift for Mimi.

A beautiful creation & gift, Lori. I'm enjoying the texture's you applied as well as the gorgeous rich colors. The shadows give it a bit of a 3D appearance too. The design is perfect on the dreamy blue background. Happy Birthday Mimi.

Lori, who told you that Poppies are my favorite summer flower? :)

You have an amazing talent girlfriend. This image has been on my desktop since last night and I love looking at it. It isn't cluttered, yet quite detailed. All the veins in the leaves are gold and quite ornate appearing. Each flower has a different gradient coloration.

I really like the symmetry in this as well. The blue background works quite well here.

The entire image remind me of hammered copper (which I also love).
There is nothing here for me not to like.

You are such a sweetie for taking the time and thinking of me on my birthday. I always feel special when my BD falls on Mother's Day and this year I have felt extra special...it was a wonderful day yesterday.

Thank you again girlfriend. It is in my favorites, on my harddrive and on my desktop! *hugs*

I like the sharp detailing in in here and the "embossing-like" character. And the symmetry, of course. They are Jewish Menorah poppies, right? Those closed buds over the side poppies seem to be about to say, "Feed me, Seymour!" I think that would make them Audrey 3, 4, 5, and 6?

Well dear friend...your latest creations are awesome! And these Poppies are very elegant. The leaves are totally gorgeous. And I love the colours you've chosen too. It's a very wonderful talent to do these creations, so precise and magical. Thank you Lori for a most lovely wallpaper. Verena
