It seems a while since I have shared something that wasn't for a DT or for card chain challenge, so when I saw the reminder for The Flower Challenge #99 and realised I had a card ready, I decided to just post it.
The challenge asks for cards to feature pink, so here is my card:
You can see the shine from the foil a bit better on this picture.
I am also adding this to NBUS #71 as the peonies are NBUS
Supplies:
cardstock: Cardbase - Hunkydory adorable scorable mattastic
Press plates: Spellbinders Peony Perfection, and a little message sentiments,
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.
Love the beautifully coloured foiled flowers-love the shine it gives.

Gorgeous foiled peonies, Hilary! Love how you foil your press plates while I tend to press my foil plates - lol. Love your coloring too!!
ReplyDeleteMore WOW's from me Hilary, this is gorgeous, I love the gold effect and the gorgeous flowers, so pretty in pink. x
ReplyDeleteThis is a stunner Hilary, and I bet much better in the flesh. Love the gold on the flowers...lessons required please.
ReplyDeleteSo very beautiful with the gold and gems, Hilary! It seems quicker and easier to make a card than to photograph and write a post, but I'm so glad you shared this eye candy today!
ReplyDeleteWhat an absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Hilary!! I love the foiling and shades of pinks you used with your polychromos...the combination is stunning! Thanks so much for sharing this lovely card with us at The Flower Challenge! Marcia (DT) :0)
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely beautiful Hilary, the foiled flower is gorgeous and your pencil colouring is superb xx
ReplyDeleteHi Hilary,
ReplyDeleteyour card is just wonderful! Beautiful colouring. And very nice to make an enveloppe which is matching!
This is so pretty, Hilary, and so feminine! I love how you achieved such elegance with a QACAS flair! (And you make me itch again for a foiling system!!) Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteHilary this is gorgeous - love the soft pinks, you used on the blooms - your colouring of the flowers is fabulous.

ReplyDeleteSo pretty and delicate and lovely foiling too.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful peonies, Hilary, especially in the light pink! I have several bushes and they sure give one something to look forward to during these last cold weeks of winter. Thanks so much for joining in at the Flower Challenge!
ReplyDeleteOnce again I'm catching up on blog reading. So glad I didn't miss this post as it's an absolutely gorgeous card, Hilary! Your pencil coloring is amazing and I adore the shine from the foil!
