STAMPIN' UP! PEONY GARDEN SINGLE BLOOM FRIENDSHIP CARD

 Today I am again showcasing some of the papers from the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper pack.  These gorgeous papers are on special for only a few more days - the sale ends 31st October.  

I have used two of the paper designs on my card.  The piece with Gray Granite outlines has been left mostly "as is", but I did use my Gray Granite Stampin' Blends to colour one flower stem, and some leaves.  I had a die-cut and coloured peony left on my craft desk, after making yesterday's card.  Happily, it sits nicely over the printed flowers on this paper.


Here's a close-up of the peony, which was coloured with Petal Pink Stampin' Blends.  The flower centre was coloured with my Dark So Saffron and Light Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends.



The paper on which I have stamped the sentiment is my favourite in the whole pack.  I just love the speckles!  The sentiment, from the So Sentimental stamp set, is stamped in Gray Granite ink.  I used my Stamparatus, to get a good, inky, impression - it took five times of repeated stamping (inking the stamp up each time) to get it to a darkness I was happy with!


I cut a piece of Petal Pink card with the loopy border die, from the Peony Dies, and attached it at the top of the sentiment panel.  The pink Elegant Faceted Gems looks a little "milky", but I decided I should use them, rather than favouring the clear and white gems all the time!

All of the products used to make this card are listed below, and are available to purchase from my online store (Australian residents only).  If you would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
