Hello Everyone ~ Do you have the Stampin’ Up Peony Garden DSP yet?
Yesterday did not turn out like I thought it would. I was all set to mail out some things, pick up my order at Lowe’s, and go to the grocery store. Barb called me and let me know that a trip to the outlets would need to be moved to that day instead of Thursday. I threw it in high gear and got myself ready to go. We only do a few stores when we go and by going in the middle of the week it is not crowded at all. We had no problem social distancing and other than ourselves there were only 1 or 2 other shoppers in the stores. I did get a new wreath for the door and some artificial flowers from Carolina Pottery. I didn’t need any clothes so only picked up 2 long sleeve shirts I can use to wear indoors as the air conditioning in stores is always so cold to me.
Today I have water aerobics and a zoom call and then I will run my errands I did not do yesterday. When I get back I am going to work on some of the pieces that I did over the weekend that needed to dry. I am hoping to make a few cards using them. I am waiting on an order for the supplies for my August Inspiration in the Mail online card class. It is supposed to be here in Thursday so I will be able to use it to do some designing with it. It will be fun to play with the supplies for this class!
I recently ordered the Peony Garden dsp. I love the colors in this paper. Pink and gray are gorgeous colors to play with and this paper uses these colors. I love that this paper only uses 3 colors. Makes it easy to design with if you struggle with colors to use. It also allows you to use other colors as the flowers are in grays so you can easily color them in if you want. Here is a simple idea using the Stampin’ Up Peony Garden DSP with the Forever Fern bundle.

Good morning Robbie,
I love these two colors together especially with the Peony Garden DSP. It is a stunning card.
Thank you for your time and sharing.
Thanks Lin! I love pink and gray together. I have also used yellow and gray together which is also another great combination.
Lovely design and colour palette Robbie!
