My favorite flower is a Peony. So when Stampin’ Up! debuted the beautiful Prized Peony stamp set, I knew it was coming to my house. Today’s card is the first time I have inked it up. I am in love once again!
This is another time I purchased the entire Suite of products for the Prized Peony. All of the items are wonderful. With the exception of the tag punch I used for the sentiment, everything is from the suite of products.
The colors of the Peony suite are gray and pink. I used Petal Pink and Gray Granite for the card stock colors. The DSP, Peony Garden Designer Series Paper, shares those colors as well. The ribbon is a shimmery Gray Granite.
I stamped the flower in Gray Granite Ink and colored with the Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends and Old Olive Light Stampin’ Blend. It is die cut using the matching dies. It may be a bit hard to see in the photo, but behind the flower is the Square Vellum Doilies that are also part of the suite. The vellum is just enough for some added texture.
The sentiment is from the stamp set and it stamped in Old Olive Ink. It is punched using the Lovely Label Punch. I found a tip for the cutting of the label length from another demonstrator and then could not find it again. So I say Thank You and I apologize for not making note of your name when I saw the tip.
Stamp your sentiment and then punch with the Lovely Label punch, either side works the same. The tip is to save the little piece that was cut off. Now lay it on the strip of your sentiment at the proper length away from the sentiment to center it.
Now simply trim the strip at the outside of the little piece and then punch. You should have a perfectly centered sentiment for your project. Woohoo!!
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you have a fun and relaxing weekend.

I have a Celebration card to share with you today. Today is the InKing Royalty Blog Hop with the theme of July 4th. I could not commit to the hop, but had the theme idea in my brain. So I decided to play along anyway.
I started with the new Arrange A Wreath stamp set. I was going to make a patriotic wreath. And I sort of did, it just wasn’t what I intended. My idea wasn’t working so I got the Stitched Stars dies out to make different sizes and colors of stars. When I noticed the large swirl of stars, I knew it would work perfectly. It is sort of a banner across my wreath.
I did add a few extra stars to the wreath to evenly balance it out. I wrapped twine from the Flowers For Every Garden Ribbon Combo Pack. The Celebrate is from the new stamp set Many Mates. It is cut using the Ornate Frames dies. The finishing touch was a few Red Rhinestones to some of the white stars.
One of the good things I did on this was to remember our Stampin’ Up! Adhesive Sheets. I added the adhesive sheet to the Real Red card stock prior to cutting the banner. It makes for very easy adhesion. Otherwise I would have had a glue mess on my hands!
Thank you for stopping by today. It is hard to believe we are mid June already. July is only a few weeks away. I will work on another July 4th card for the actual holiday.

I have been using quite a few of the new In Colors in the recent weeks. However, I keep coming back to Misty Moonlight. Blue has always been my favorite color, and this is a perfect blue. I discovered in making today’s card that it pairs wonderfuly with Seaside Spray. That was my favorite color from last year’s In Colors. Combining my two favorites gave me a happy stamping day.
I really had no idea where I was going with this card when it was started. I had the negative of the black circle from Friday’s card on my desk. I decided I had not done any sponging lately so picked it up. I used the Seaside Spray for the inside of the circle. I then added Misty Moonlight to the outside. It sort of reminded me of a foggy full moon. From there the idea of the globe finished the card.
I added the globe by stamping it with the Misty Moonlight. I knew I wanted to use this sentiment and have it mimic all the circles. So I stamped it and die cut using the Stitched Shapes dies. I love the stitching detail. For the background, I found a Layering Circle die that fit perfectly. The finishing touch was the Misty Moonlight ribbon.
Thank You for stopping by today. I hope you have a wonderful day.
