Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? Hope you are doing some fun things, hiking, gardening or maybe just relaxing. I’ll be at work all day today, but yesterday I had a very productive day. I did a little of everything, inside and out. I’m still trying to get my house back in order since all the workers are done. That’s not going to happen in 1 or 2 days though. I was able to spend a little time outside cutting the grass and gardening a little.

For today’s card I used a set that is going to be carrying over to the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. The Stampin’ Up! Prized Peony Cling Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from The Spot Challenge #158.

I started by adhering a panel of the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper to a Petal Pink card base using Stampin’ Seal. I cut a panel of Petal Pink cardstock using the Ornate Layers Dies. I stamped the smallest peony from the Prized Peony stamp set in Petal Pink Ink and adhered the die cut to my card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Gray Granite Ink. I adhered the strip to a Gray Granite mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I tied a small bow using the 5/8″ Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon and adhered it to the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Gray Granite Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the small peony from the Prized Peony stamp set on either side of the sentiment in Petal Pink Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Gray Granite mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small peony from the Prized Peony stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Peony Garden DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
