CCMC619 – Prized Peony

July 2, 2020 By Connie | 1 Comment

Happy Thursday!  It’s time for the Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.  This month we are “Casing the Catalog”.  Each week, we’ll take a card sample from the catalog and use the layout, colors, or stamps to create our own version.  First up is the card on page 18 of the Annual Catalog.

They used the Painted Poppies Bundle in the catalog.  I switched it out and used Prized Peony on mine, along with some bright colors!

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Magenta Madness cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White cardstock is added on top.
  • A 3/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Flowers for Every Seasons DSP was added down the left side.
  • The scallop trim was cut with the Peony Die from Magenta Madness cardstock and added on the left side next to the DSP.
  • The Square Vellum Doily was colored with the Light Mango Melody Stampin Blends, then added to the front as a diamond shape.
  • The large peony in Prized Peony stamp set was stamped once with Magenta Madness Ink, then stamped again with Granny Apple Green Ink on Whisper White cardstock.  The blossom was colored with Light & Dark Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends and the stem and leaves with Light and Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends.  Both were cut out with the Peony Die.  Then the blossom cut off the stem and added to the green image with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The flower was added to the doily with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Some Linen Thread was wrapped several times around my hand, then added to the stem with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
  • The greeting from Prized Peony was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Bumblebee cardstock, cut with the Stitched So Sweetly Die and added on top with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • A trio of In Color Bumblebee Enamel Dots were added in the background.

This card is really striking in real life!  I love the bright colors and the layout!  OK…check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did this week with their Case the Catalog challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 19 years and had my 18th year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
