I have made a sweet water coloured peony card made using the gorgeous Prized Peony and the new Water Painter’s and I love them!!
To recreate the Water coloured Peony card you will need:
Gray Granite card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Granny Apple Green – 5⅞” by 1⅞”
Daffodil Delight – 5⅞” by ½”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Shimmery White – 5” by 3 ¼” – rounded upper left corner
I began by running the piece of Granny Apple Green card through my embossing machine in the Tin Tile embossing folder and adhered it to the Gray Granite card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The large peony image was inked up using the Daffodil Delight Marker for the flower and Granny Apple Green Marker for the stem and leaves. I love that we can use the markers in this way. The image was stamped onto the Shimmery White panel. Using the Water Painters I coloured in the flower using only the ink on the stamped image. I did the same for the leaves and stems.

After the image dried I started adding Mango Melody ink to the shaded areas of the flower with the small Water Painter. This gives more definition to the flower. I left the panel to dry completely.

Using the dark Granny Apple Green I coloured in a strip of Whisper White Crinkle Ribbon and let it dry. The ribbon was then wrapped around the stamped panel and a bow added with a Glue Dot.

I die cut the border from the Daffodil Delight card using the Ornate Borders dies and used the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue it to the back of the stamped panel, trimming off the excess with scissors.

The sentiment from the Prized Peony stamp set was stamped at the bottom of the panel in Granny Apple Green ink. I then added a scattering of Holiday Rhinestones to finish the card.
So pretty, I hope you like it.
