Peony

I loved the inspiration picture at Just Add Ink; it seems modern and beachy and spa-like and just a touch quirky.  Me likey.  And then the colors from Pal Paper Arts called out to me and were really quite similar so I combined the two.  Neat!

I pulled out a panel that I had stamped back at the end of June with a giant flower stamp that Amy had just picked up--it was still in the bag even (thanks for letting me be the first to use it, Amy! and thanks to Lenae for the ink!).  I then added the sentiment and a few enamel dots.  I'm torn about whether I should have added a sheer ribbon--which I didn't have in the color that's in my head anyway.  :)

The Details:  A Muse Studio Charming Gardeners sentiment, Impress Pen and Ink Peony,  PTI soft stone cardstock, Recollections 110lb white cardstock, PTI 140lb white cardstock base, Hero Arts Tide Pool, Memento desert sand, Simon Says stitched rectangle die
