Altenew is running an "Ultimate Challenge Blog Hop". I was thrilled as I'm on the Design Team for the CAS Mix Up blog and our blog was invited to take part in the blog hop, along with 17 other challenge blogs.
Peonies are one of my favourite flowers and I have a few of them growing in my garden. So I used the Altenew Peony Bouquet stamp set. The stamps are heat embossed in white on hot press watercolour paper. I used my Gansai Tambi watercolour paints, with the wet-on-wet technique. I love the way the water moves the paint when you drop it in.
I fussy cut all of the images and arranged them on a die cut stitched rectangle panel that is popped up on fun foam.
Here's the link for the blog hop and challenge if you want to follow the blog hop or link up an Altenew card for the challenge and possibly win a $35 gift certificate:

Susan the colouring is wonderful, your shading effect with all the pinks is perfect. I also love the white embossing, it gives a nice soft edge. Congrats to the CAS mix up team for being invited to participate in the Altnew blog hop.
