Description from Granny Chick aka Nancy: Whew! Poppy Red is one of the 2013 Spring Colors. That is tough. Yes carnelian is about the same color but it was difficult to come up with something interesting.
So then I accidentally brought in some copper and I was off to the races. I almost ditched it but it does illustrate how some metals and different colors can co-exist.
