At first glance the dies can be a little intimidating but once you use them they will amaze you! So easy to fit together to form this beautiful flower! I used the entire Peony Garden Suite to design and make this card.
Stampin Up® has out done themselves with the design for this flower. The color combo's blend so well together. Hope it give you some inspiration to create a bunch of cards!
