Just had to try out my new eb folder for this challenge. It's one of those new reversible folders and it's great on both sides. I used blossom 4 for the peony/rose whatever? (I think it looks like a peony). Also used a spellbinders die for the blossoms. The scrolly things that you can hardly see are a Marianne. The small white twig branches covered in glitter are MS punch. The flower and leaves are worked on with a large embossing tool and the flower was then watercoloured before assembly.

This is breath-taking, Elizabeth. Looks like a card to be hand-delivered to me with that gorgeous pink blossom(unless the Canadian Post is better with such things than the USPS) ; ) Really an over-the-top GORGEOUS card.

Wow! That peony is gorgeous! You used the perfect coloured paper for it! I love all your flower and leaves die cuts too and the embossing folder is perfect to show off the sentiment. A beautiful creation!

I agree with you on that large flower...they do look more like peonies...or it's just because I looooove peonies...but anyway, they are gorgeous and yours here is beyond fab....love the way you colored it...this will surely make her day...so glad you could come to the party this week
