Embossed Peonies

I haven't posted in a while. Work kept me busy, was traveling a bit and when I did get to play in my craft room I've primarily been working on my Christmas cards instead of the weekly challenges. I needed a few thank you cards though and the Simon Says Stamp Thanks/Thanksgiving challenge was perfect timing. I wanted minimal layers on the card for easy mailing so opted to add dimension with color. The flowers were masked and then embossed. I also added some clear shimmer inside the flowers. 
Handmade thank you card with vibrant embossed flowers on black background using PTI Peonies on Parade stamps
In person the card looks really vibrant and I ended up making a few other variations for birthday and other celebrations. Thanks for looking.

Supplies:
  • Stamps: PTI Peonies on Parade
  • Tools: Simon Says Stamp Thanks craft die S202, Zing embossing powder in Cricket, Grapefruit, Butter and Powder.
