Bold Peony - Stampin' Up! You've Got This

 There are good things and bad things about this time in the Stampin' Up! year.  The bad is that when you pull all of the retiring products off of your shelves you get a bit sad because it seems. like. so. much. stuff.  And then you realize how you didn't use a lot of it as much as you wanted to and you get a bit more sad.  But the good part is that you then go on a mad rush to use some of the retiring products whether just to use up the last few pieces of a DSP pack or to make that one card you always had in your mind but never got around to doing.

  I decided to use the retiring You've Got This stamp set for one last hurrah.  I found some time to participate in a few challenges and came across the one over at Color Throwdown which seemed like the perfect one for the big blossom. Coral, Green and Kraft. Done and done!

  This stamp was made for coloring!  I used my Stampin' Blends to color it in and then cut it out with my Oval framelits.  The rest of the card is basic....Crumb Cake base and a bit of the Petal Passion DSP.  I have used this DSP a lot and still have a bunch left.  I see more black and white elements on my cards for the next 3 weeks!

  A Pear Pizzazz Shimmer ribbon bow detail and a bit of Wink of Stella in the flower center finish this card off. 

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
