What a bunch of super colors! I used the blushing bride, daffodil, mossy meadow, pistachio pudding & strawberry slush. I used the pinks/reds/yellows to color my peonies & the combination made them kind of a coral color.
Since my images are digital, I printed out the peonies in a medium/large size and colored them with Copics. I wanted the peonies to be slightly elevated so I fussy cut them & attached them to a large white oval with foam tape. The green bg was die cut w/ one of the matting basics dies then embossed for a little texture. I used the Perfect Paper Crafting mini rulers to cut the 1/16th white mat before adding it all to a die cut coral pink layer.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups and the colors of Copics are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Gorgeous card, Julie! Your coloring and fussy cutting of the peonies is outstanding! I really like that accent strip with the negative of the tiny banners!

Oh, I just love the Power poppy flowers!! Yours are colored beautifully (of course!!!) I love the colors you chose for this card and love how the colors created a bit of coral or peachy look! I really like that color. All your layers and die cuts make for gorgeous framing too!!
