Purple Peonies

There's a new challenge over at Power Poppy called Peep of the Week.  This one is titled "Show Us Your Stuff" - i.e. make something using one of the fabulous Power Poppy stamps.  Well, that was no hardship at all - the difficult part was choosing which one to use!!  However, I'm a big fan of these wonderful peonies and purple is my favourite colour, so I went with that.  My background papers are from Kaisercraft's Violet Crush paper pad, layered onto purple cardstock.  I covered the join in the papers with black cardstock punched out with Martha Stewart's doily lace punch, and added narrow gold ribbon and a trailing bow.  I die cut metallic gold cardstock with a Spellbinders Exquisite Circles die, then black cardstock with a Spellbinders Scalloped Circles die, layered them together and added them to the card front with foam tape.  Next, I die cut the digitally printed Peonies with a Spellbinders Standard Circle die, coloured them with copics and attached the image piece to the black circle.  Finally I added a small gold butterfly charm to keep with the gold theme.

Copic Colours used were:  V000, V04, V06, V12, G40, G43.
