I am beyond excited to be hopping along with Spellbinders to celebrate the Stephanie Low – Just Add Color release. And if you are hopping along you should have arrived here from Janette’s wonderful Blog!
If you know me, then you know that I adore flowers and I recently posted a video making a Floral Gift Card set using the Just Add Color release and you can see that HERE, just in case you missed it.
Today I did some marker watercolouring with a little help from some pencils to add some simple shading to these beautiful flowers from the Peonies Bundle Stamp Set.
I added a sentiment from the Orange Blossoms Stamp of the Month Club.
and what to do with a ‘left over’ flower? Why, create a coordinating gift tag of course.
My tag is a simple die cut circle with a heat embossed sentiment from the Thanks Expressions set.
and all together now…..

Those peonies are lovely! Really pop with the gray/black background and sentiment. Great card.
Oh wow! What gorgeous flowers on your lovely card and tag.
So very beautiful, Therese! Now if I could only get Peonies in this color for the garden! LOve that you’ve left those on your card base uncolored … a look I hope to remember! xx

LOVE the color you used! And I keep forgetting about that technique to stamp and on the card base and paper layer on top. I really like the look and appreciate the reminder. I’m looking forward to when I can get the peony stamp and color that. Looks like fun!! Thanks, Therese!!
So pretty, Therese, I adore that peach color!
You really brought the flowers to life with your colouring! So gorgeous!
Dear There’s lovely card and gift tag set using Peonies Bundle stamp set from Just add color collection by Stephenie Low. I loved the colors and the design. Thank you for everything. Tc stay blessed always.love and hugs from Sri Lanka
Your peachy flower tag is very pretty. I like the black background…
The peonies stampset is just lovely and your colour choice is spot on.
I love your tag and card set!!
Your card and tag is absolutely gorgeous. Love the colors of the flowers.
Thanks for sharing…
Glorious color! The Peonies are my favorite. Love the black & white background.
Wow this is gorgeous!! I love your coloring! And that coordinating tag is just perfect!! 😍
Just beautiful. I really NEED this stamp set! lol
Gorgeous Therese you use colours I’d never think of but look wonderful.
Never knew that Spellbinders did stamps and the beautiful peonies set is sold out! Thanks for sharing your inspiration too!
Hugs Shaz in Oz.x
Hi Shaz, I have also seen these stamps at Craft Online, but haven’t checked to see if they are in stock at the moment… hope this helps (although it may not help the budget lol). Hugs Therese
Oh what a lovely card and gift tag. I especially like the contrast with the colour and none colour images. Truly inspiring. TFS
Great work, the flowers look wonderful on your background. Thanks for sharing this new release!
Beautiful card and I love how you made the matching tag from leftovers. I often forget about my leftovers and they sit in an envelope unused and forgotten, this is a great way to use up those left over pieces. Thanks for sharing.
Your peonies are so gorgeous in those coral colors! I love the black line stamped background and the gorgeous black tag which makes that peony pop!
I love the colored roses juxtaposed again the lack and white image! Beautiful!
The flower’s are absolutely gorgeous, Therese.
Who doesn’t love Peonies? Well, you certainly won’t find me in that group. I love them. I have one stamp set that has them….but I love the way that Stephanie designs….I am a huge fan of hers. Therese I loved your card and tag today…..so pretty…as always…..I look forward to seeing what you are designing. Thanks so much!
luv that effect, using one base medium and highlighting/shadowing with a different medium. great projects!!
Thanks for sharing. They are lovely.
So pretty, thanks for sharing.
I love your tag. That peach color against the black is gorgeous. I love the stamp set, it’s beautiful!!
Beautiful! I love those peachy colors on those gorgeous flowers. TFS!
These are gorgeous and so delicate looking!
BEAUTIFUL!!!! The striking black with this peach make a WONDERFUL COMBINATION! I LOVE this image. Your choosing this peach color is PERFECT & make the flowers look SO REAL!!!! A WONDERFUL JOB & I LOVE that little tag too!!! 🙂
The black and white image behind the colored one looks cool. Great touch
love how you color highlighted the flowers. Peach was the perfect color to use. So pretty.
I love your color choices!
Absolutely stunning flowers, such a pretty color palette!
Oh my! Your colouring is just stunning. Love it 🙂
such sweet projects – love the layered flower and the super cute tag – thanks for the inspiration!!
Beyond the incredible scent of peonies, I find the shapes and colour of them are equally amazing. Your card is in that same category. Love the black and white images in the background, the boldly coloured floral imagery and that awesome sentiment square. All wonderful and inspiring! Thanks so much.
Love the use of black and white against the beautiful colors of the peonies in the card. Thank you for the inspiration. Love the Just Add Color Peonies Bundle Stamp Set by Spellbinders.
So creative! I am in awe! Thanks.

Theresa, loved the black and white background with that special splash of peach color on the flowers. The sequins added just that special touch. Thank you for sharing your talents with us today.
Absolutely stunning card and tag! Your water coloring is just so gorgeous! I really love the softness in the colors too!
Oh Therese, I love the soft look of the beautiful colours you chose to use on the Peonies !! So very appealing & what a great idea to make a gift tag as well. I’d have just stashed it away in hopes of using it another time. (then likely forget it…) lol I’m never disappointed with your card creations.
Your coloring is so pretty on those flowers. Love the peachy color too.
These are so gorgeous! Love!

Beautiful card and tag and such great detail!
Therese, I don’t need anymore flower stamps, but as usual, you have made these peonies so beautiful that they are now on my wishlist! Thank you for the inspiration.
I don’t ‘need’ any more flower stamps either, but I can’t resist (wink), is that bad?
Beautiful card and tag what a great idea to do both at the same time. Love the soft watercolors. Thank you for sharing your talents.
Pretty card and tag. I like the stamped background.
Gorgeous card, I love your card and matching gift tag!
I live your use of gray — makes it all pop. Thanks as always for sharing.
Therese, your coloring is beautiful! Love how you have the stamped imges on the base uncolored, an the ones you cut out by hand colored. So beatiful!
These flowers are gorgeous and your coloring is so pretty! Looks so good on the black tag too.
I have said it before and I will say it again here. You coloring skills are off the charts Therese! Another stunner of a card.
Gorgeous projects!
I love how you used the extra flower to make a tag. The coloring is wonderful.
Wow! So beautiful.
Gorgeous projects. This is such a beautiful stamp and your coloring, as always, is amazing.
WOW! Those flowers look so real! Awesome!
Love the card and tag and the peach and green colors are soft and sweet.
Ohh wow Therese, your card is stunning and I love that you made the gift tag from the left over flower. The colouring is awesome and the colour you used is beautiful.
The card set from your previous post is also great, I love the gorgeous flower stamps by Stephanie.
Thank you so much for sharing.
You can peer down into the flowers. The shading
gives them so much dimension. They are
beautiful. Love the peach color.
