Lovely soft color combo today! I had some designer paper that had close to the same colors so I built my card around it. IÂ’m not sure why the peony looks sort of orangey here..in real life, itÂ’s a lot more pinky. I also went with the "Fabby" option, since I think chevrons & sequins are pretty fabby.
After I water colored the peony & background, I used the out of the box technique to die cut it. I added a white layer then put it back on top of the larger background I cut it from originally. Another white layer then it was added to the stitched layer along with the piece of dp. The Happy was die cut 3 times & stacked together for more dimension, then a few sequins added for a little sparkle.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff

This sure is fab, Julie, love the dp you used as your starting point!! Very pretty peony, funny how the true colours do not always show up on the computer!
