Each Sunday Patsy Waggoner (my border buddy) and I take turns creating a card using one of our card sketches. Our sketches help inspire you; spark your mojo! You can't make a mistake – interpret the sketch anyway you wish!
Today's card features the brand new Prized Peony Bundle which includes the Prized Peony Stamp Set and coordinating Peony Dies and when you purchase them together you save 10%
You can create a card exactly using the sketch layout or change it up a bit. You can also turn the sketch so if it is a vertical sketch you might want to turn it to be horizontal.

I love the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper which includes beautiful drawings of peonies and more muted designs. You receive 12 sheets (12" x 12") with 6 double-sided designs, 2 of each. I coloured in between the flowers with my Light Pool Party Stampin' Blend to add some detail and definition to the pattern. I love the look.
