Peony Blooms
I am really in love with the 3D embossing folders, especially on watercolor paper. This paper seems to take the deep embossing without cracking or tearing and is so lovely to color. This folder is called Peony Blooms by Creative Expressions that I colored with Zig Kuretake waterbrush pens. Added the die cut sentiment by Simon Says Stamp.

Acetate Card
I am getting back into my Stampin' Up! card making, ordered some new goodies and am looking forward to them. First I need to use some of the sets I have not yet cracked open. Framed Florets was from the previous mini and it is really awesome. Love the dies that came with it and I will be using them quite often.
The card base is acetate and white card stock with some patterned paper from Honey Bee, called Simply Spring. This paper pad is gorgeous! Acetate card was from a tutorial by Sam Calcott. Check her out on youtube, she has some amazing projects to inspire.
