Today I'm sharing a card with you that I've done for this week's TIOT (Try It Out Tues/Thurs) Challenge for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design.  I challenged the DT to create a project that was mostly white/cream with a pop of color, but the image can be multi colored. Ummm, yes I cheated slightly, lol--I HAD to add some plum and hot pink to my project!!  I used a fabulous new Lockhart Stamp Co. stamp called "Peonies" for my main image.  Peonies seem to be popping up everywhere lately--including some lovely yellow ones in my front garden, they're so pretty!


Isn't that "Peonies" stamp by Lockhart beautiful--I just love it!  I embossed the white cardstock with a CB embossing folder (a Tim Holtz folder)--I love white embossed, so pretty!  The scrolls are from a new Marianne Designs die--I just love the delicacy of these dies.  TIP: sometimes die cuts can be hard to get out of dies, so place wax paper between the die & your paper.  Then run thru your machine 2-3 times and ta-da it slips out very easily for you!  The bow was made with my Bow Easy & I used my SB's Circle Nestabilities to cut the circle mats & image.


A closeup of the image for you---I used these Copics on the image: Plums-V99,V95,V000/Pinks-RV19,RV14 & RV10.  I added a few stardust stickles on some of the flower petals for extra sparkle--so pretty!

Make sure to scroll down to see the rest of the DT's fabulous projects and make sure to join in on the fun!
