Each Thursday my Border Buddy Patsy Waggoner from the US and I take turns creating a card that we CASED from a current Stampin’ Up! catalogue. CASE means Copy And Selectively Edit. The beautiful projects by the concept artists from Stampin' Up! are a great way to be inspired! When you CASE, you can copy it exactly, or selectively edit it by changing the colors or the stamp set or both.
In my card today I changed up the stamp set from Seaside View to Prized Peony.
Stampin' Up! concept artist card on left (page 47 of the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue) and my CASE on right using Prized Peony Stamp Set.
I love peonies and have over 400 blooms each year in my garden. I love the fragrance as much as the beautiful flowers. Here are some of my favourites from my own garden.

- Gray Granite (card base) – 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"; scored at 4 1/4"
