PTI April 2012 Blog hop

Welcome to Papertrey Ink April 2012 Blog Hop. Here is photo for the inspiration challenge.
Here is my card. I am inspired by the beautiful color of the fabric.

I create the background by stamping the butterfly from Pretty Peonies set , flower from Beautiful Blooms set and leaves from Turning a New Leave set. I stamp the frame and sentiment on scratch paper , cut out and pop off with foam tape. Also I stamp the solid peony then I color and blend with markers. Love the water color look of the peony.
All the inks and markers are MOMENTO.

Close look of the peony.

Thanks for looking. I would love to hear what you think of the peony.

Your background stamping is amazing. I didn't realize it was a butterfly until I read the description!! The coloured peony has so much depth and texture ... it looks like you just picked it from your garden!!
