SWEET PEONY

My peony's are in full bloom. I can't resist picking them and having them all over the house so I can enjoy them more and smell their beautiful scent. I even have a vase in the bathroom!
So it was an easy choice today to use the new Peony stamp from Clear Dollar Stamps for the CAS Challenge at Splitcoast.
Today's CAS challenge was a colour challenge. We were to use Kraft, Pink/Cameo and any other one colour. I chose Chocolate Chip.
This card was also created for the CCEE challenge. We were to create a card in honor of Dawn aka flowergal36. It had to have a flower on it. Click on the link for more details.

Card Supplies:
Stamps: Clear Dollar Stamps~Peony & Just For You
Paper: Kraft, Regal Rose, Chocolate Chip
Ink: Chocolate Chip, White Staz-on
Accessories: Ribbon, Large Oval & Scalloped Punches, Bone Folder


Thanks so much for looking. I hope you have a great day and that flowers are blooming somewhere near you!
Gloria

I love peonies, too! A lady at work always brings in a vaseful for the office and they smell heavenly! I have one small peony bush with the deep raspberry colored peonies, and it's my favorite. I'm so glad you got a chance to play in our CCEE challenge and make a card for our sweet friend, Dawn! It's beautiful, Gloria!
