If you love the watercolour look and want an easy way to get this real quick, then the watercolour stamping I share in today’s video could be a great option for you!
It’s time for another Build-A-Flower release from Altenew and this one is the beautiful Peony. Did you arrive here from LAURAJANE’s incredible Blog? if you did, then you are in the right place!
This flower is huge and I thought it would be fun to create a 3D effect across the card front, you can watch the process in the video linked below.
I stamped the images using the beautiful Sugarplums Ink Set.
And added a sentiment from the Sentiment Strips 2 die cut with the Featured Sentiments Die Set.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Those Sugar Plum inks are so beautiful with this flower.
I loved seeing your cat’s reflection as they walked across your work surface! Lol! Your card is beautiful!
hahaha she was just trying to sneak by unnoticed lol.
Therese, I love watching your videos. This card is a beauty!
Wow, LOVE this color combo for fall with these beautiful peonies and the 3D look is amazing, what a gorgeous card! Thanks for another awesome video tutorial, especially water color stamping tips.
Beautiful card!!
I adore you, right back, Therese! Especially when you use my favorite shades of colors! Off to watch this gorgeousness come to life!

Amazing colour choice on these peonies, I love it x
what a great idea for a dimensional card and just beautiful too!
Stunning! Love the colors and the boldness of these flowers!
WOW, I love your card.
Here in Tasmania peonies are starting to bloom now including my deep red peony under my lilac tree. A very timely release for southern hemisphere dwellers. Thank you Altenew and your creative team for continually producing and showcasing a wonderful array of stamps/dies/inks etc to keep the joy of crafting alive.
Love your creation and that purple color is awesome.
Wow, a color choice that I would not have thought of and it is very elegant. TFS
Love, Love, the colors used. So beautiful and fills the card perfectly. Always nice work here and great instructional video. Off to more great ideas and happy hopping.
As you were choosing the sentiment die cut, I thought “oh, yes the thicker one” and then that’s what you chose! Great minds….. I find in cutting off the overage on a card I have to use the guillotine cutter or I cut the card base! Long scissors are not my friend…lol
Gorgeous card!!! Leaving the bottom layer white really brightened up the flowers. That is a great trick. Really like the 3D effect you got with your pretty blooms!
This looks amazing.
What a cool and different color combo. I like different!
I love how you left the base layer white and those Sugarplum colors are beautiful for you peonies! The layer of grey in the background is wonderful!
I love these rich and luscious colours! And thank you for sharing a video!
Love the 3D look and your color choices.
the superplum colors are just lovely on your card, Therese.
Fabulous watercoloring! Thanks for the inspiration.
I LOVE peonies, and I really like the nontraditional colors you have used here. Just lovely! The stamp is large and I didn’t think it would fit on a card, and here you have THREE without a problem! And I like the wider/fatter size frame for your sentiment!! Thanks for the inspiration, Therese!
I love the color choice. Beautiful card
Great video and nice design.
Absolutely gorgeous! Wonderful color choice. 💜
This is beautiful! Love the color choices as well! Sometimes I have trouble using the larger designs in creating a composition on a card and this was so helpful!
What a pretty card! I love the colors you used!
Beautiful card, beautiful colours, beautiful bloom. Love it all.
Another stunning Build A Flower set.
Thank you for the inspiration Therese.
Keep well.

Absolutely gorgeous color combination. Love love love this card!❤️
I said “ooooh” out loud when I opened the post email – gorgeous! And I like the “fatter” sentiment too 🙂
Beautiful card. Great video. Thanks for sharing
Awesome layout! I love the layering and dimension
I love your card design and layers!
This card takes my breath away! Your color choices are beautiful and the black with white sentiment pops so nicely. Great job!
I’ve been posting my peony’s opening these last two weeks. Had to smile because I was hoping for a peony in this marvelous set. Loved the video, so many handy hints. Love the ghost kittens too. My son adopted a rescue kitten and she loves to help in my studio too!
Beautiful card really love the sugar plum colour way. Keep health.
Cheers
Lisa
I always enjoy watching you create Therese and this was no exception! The flowers look gorgeous, your colour scheme is stunning and as usual you give such helpful tips! Thanks so much!
Gorgeous card. Love the colors.
Very pretty! I would not have thought of those colors for the peonies. But the flowers are radiant and glorious!
So pretty – great colours!
Lovely.
Love this 3D effect. The grey cardstock blends well with the grey tone in the purples. I also have guillotine issues. Some days it seems impossible to get a 90 degree cut.
Beautiful card.
You’re so funny! “Fatter” is just fine, lol! I saw this card over on IG when I was checking things out this morning. The first thing that my eyes went to were the colors. Rich and elegant. Then my eyes saw those peonies…exactly what I’ve been looking for! And I did notice the gray panel, too. I was impressed by the beauty and the dimension of this card, Therese. Absolutely love this! Stunning card and fun video! Stay safe. xo
The new BAF set is gorgeous. And I love your inspiration! I think I will try this technique with one of my older BAF sets.
You card is my favourite Therese. I am so taken with the Sugarplum ink colours. And, as always, I enjoyed your video.
Gorgeous card Therese. Love those stunning colours and layout. Another beautiful presentation.
Wonderful dimension and arrangement. This is such a pretty stamp set!
Beautiful cards! I love the “white” base layer and the dimension on your card!
Very pretty!
I love the colors you chose.
Thanks for sharing.
I truly love your awesome card! The unusual color choice is so beautiful! A great new stamp for our collection!!
I always look forward to your creations, Therese. Your color combinations always inspire me! I love the layout of this card. The flowers look like they’re floating on air! Thanks too for sending them over to my blog. Warm regards <3
Gorgeous card!
Such soft colors! Elegant!
I am a huge fan of your work and again you have created another beautiful card. I love the peonies with the colors you chose! I can’t wait to get home from our trip so I can use this great stamp set.
Beautiful card. Perfect for a large flower. Great trick to add the leaves to the flower – can you see me trying to pop up all the elements individually! haha
I too use long bladed scissors to cut when off the edge however I would be lost without my guillotine. After trying more paper trimmers than one should and being tired of replacing blades all the time I purchased a Fiskars one made from recycled plastic about 12 months ago. I love it! I do find I need to stand though or I get wonky cuts.
Your card is gorgeous. I love the 3D look and the beautiful peony. As for the sentiment strip, I think the “fatter” one is perfect, but either one would be lovely on this card.
Beautiful, Therese … the gorgeous grey is a fabulous focal point for these fantastic blooms … the plummy colours are yummy with it! Fatter or skinnier sentiment strip … both would be lovely … your choice is (of course!) delicious! I see your kitty was doing a little helping out!! Hugs, Anita 🙂
What a gorgeous card – I love the gorgeous colours of those peonies. Very elegant!
Amazing card!!!!
This is beautiful in these colors.
I love how those brown flowers turned out!
