Happiest Of Peonies ....

Hello and Happy Thursday everyone !! 

I am stopping by today to share this card I created using 

the GORGEOUS 

Happiest of Peonies 

stamp set 

from 

The Ton stamps. 

 This is such a beautiful set , 

and let me tell you I was intimidated to color this beauty in. 

 I used my Zig Real Brush Markers along with Winsor & Newton water color markers

(these are new to me also ) . 

 I began by stamping my image onto Bristol Smooth cardstock , according to me this was a 

square shaped card (maybe not , lol ) . The ink I used is my favorite one so far for no line watercoloring Memento in Desert Sand. 

 I then began my coloring , I began with the Winsor & Newton marker in the color Mauve . I did several layers . Letting them dry before adding more . 

I hope you enjoy this card and feel inspired to create !! 

Wishing you all a wonderful and Blessed day !!
