To see how to shape the peonies watch these two videos: Sweet Peony Flower Shaping Basics and How to Shape the Sweet Peony 4 Different Ways.

Instructions: I like to do all my die cutting, shaping and coloring first. Die cut 2 of your Festive Holiday Decorative dies using white cardstock. TIP: when stamping with Pigment ink you will have to let it dry or set with a heat gun before die cutting and coloring to avoid smudging. Using your Large Sweet Peony Stamp Set and Small Peony Stamp Set, stamp your flowers using the Distress Oxide Worn Lipstick ink. Using the Small Sweet Peony Stamp set stamp the leaves using the Color Box Olive Pastel Ink. Using your Peony Bud and Blossom stamp set, stamp your buds using a mixture of the Olive Pastel on the leaves and the Worn Lipstick on the bud. When your stamped images have dried, use your stack and store daubers to color your flowers, I have colored the main flower using a mixture of Pearlescent Coral and Crimson Copper, the smaller outer flowers I used the Pearlescent Coral. The outer flowers I have used wired stamens 1 each in the outer flowers and 1 each in the small flowers in the top corner (see tip below for curling your stamen wires). Color your leaves with Memento Pistachio ink and highlight edges with Distress Ink Forest Moss. Once dried die cut with coordinating dies. Using your mini mister lightly spray your flowers, shape using the 3D Floral Basics Shaping Mold. Shape your peony bud using your Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.

Cut your card base using the white linen cardstock 12" x 6 1/8". Fold your card in half, I like to run a bone folder over the spine of the card to give it a clean finish. Trim the selected cardstock from the Sweet Peony Collection, trim this down to 4 mats of 5 7/8" x 5 7/8". I like to use a full sheet of cardstock and have matching inserts and a rear mat. Lay your ribbon around you card base and leave equal amounts exposed to the right side to tie your bow. Hold in place with a little tape and adhere your front mat in place, this will hold your ribbon in place, repeat with the rear mat remembering to keep the card closed to avoid the ribbon bunching. Adhere your insert mats.

TIP: I like to use the metal stamen wire and curl them for added effect. I have done this on the outer flowers and the smaller flowers. I adhere my flower well in place and then using a skewer or a pen or a stylus handle (depending on the size of the curl required) I curl the wire around and skewer and slide off to give this beautiful curled wired effect. You can do this before you adhere your flower or when it is secured very well in place.

Now you have all your elements done, you can complete your card. Adhere the flowers and decorative die cuts as pictured. Using designer dries clear adhesive adhere the "Especially for you" sentiment, a little glue on the left and right sides, so you can hold the left in place and when secure push the sentiment up to have a raised effect for your heading and hold in place until dry, and you can loop the tail at the bottom of the blossom stamp through your sentiment. Decorate with Stickles as desired. I like to highlight the leaves and the Baby's Breath. Tie your bow to complete the card.

Instructions: Begin by making the frame for the card front. Place the larger of the two frame a card borders without the outside cutting layer on a white card stock and cut a frame.

Layer the petals and add pollens. Make small filler flowers from the classic rose die and stamp set. Make many leaves from the classic rose cling stamp and die using green inks. Shape the leaves using golf tools.

Arrange the flowers and leaves on the card front using glue. Finish the card by adding filler flowers and clear water droplets.

Next, take the yellow patterned sheet from the Blushing Rose paper pad and using the Eyelet Oval Die, cut out an oval decorative border and adhere the border to the front of the window frame, lining it up with the oval window using Designer Dries Adhesive. Turn the window over to its backside and apply 3D foam tape around the edges of the oval window making sure there are no gaps or spaces between the tape. This is to ensure that the sequins and the seed beads don't escape once the card is completed. Apply Foam tape to the sides and corners of the window as well to prop the window up from the card base. Set aside.

Take sequins and place them around the stamped image along with the seed beads, ensuring that they stay in place around the stamped image, within the oval confine of where the window will sit. Take the window frame and place it over top of the stamped image making sure that it is centered and adhere. This process closes the shaker window.

From the Blushing Rose paper pad, cut out the decorative blank purple rectangle template and stamp with the "Best Wishes" stamp from the Classic Wedding Roses Cling Stamp set using Ranger Archival Ink in Jet Black. Use 3D foam tape for the back and adhere it to the front of the shaker window on the lower left side.
