I was inspired by my wonderful peonies, so this is the second post of the day! For the winnie & walter premiere click here.
I just had to get out my Hero Arts Flower Background stamp, because of my wonderful dark peonies:
They are in full bloom at the moment, making my little heart jump for joy everytime I enter our garden. So I made a card using another Hero Arts sketch (Sketch #2) and some embossing to enter this to the ABNH challenge, too:
First, I die-cut a tag from vellum using the Hero Arts Large Tag die. Then I embossed it with the Medallion embossing folder and adhered it to the card. I use a special vellum adhesive runner to do this. Now I stamped my Large Flower Background onto white cardstock. I chose one of the gorgeous flowers, colored it with watercolor pencils and fussy-cut it. It's difficult to capture on the photo, but I applied some Wink of Stella onto the petals. The flower is adhered with foam tape. I needed a German sentiment, so I printed one onto vellum and fussy-cut that, too.
I hope you like the result! Thanks for visiting!

Beautiful, Vanessa! Our peonies aren't quite blooming yet, but they seemed to have survived our hard winter with lots of buds. They are transplants from a loved neighbor who has since moved away - a rose red one like yours, a pale pink, and a white, and they are treasures!
I'd forgotten about this stamp - it IS a wonderful representation of a peony!
This is sooooooooo gorgeous! I love love love love that flower!!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous! Would love to walk in a garden and see such lovely peonies! Your card is a perfect match!
LOVE this Vanessa. Adore the beautiful purple flower.
Swoon! Love the embossing on here! Beautiful!
