Patterned Paper plus a Peony

Hello! I love it when you find good patterned paper that make it so easy to create a card! Today I have a beautiful card to share using patterned paper from Maker Forte (designed by Alex Syberia).

I first found a black and white paper with words on it. When you look and highlight a few of the words, it says “You are Amazing!” Love it. Then I found a complimentary patterned paper from the same set with purples and oranges. I cut a smaller strip of this paper to put on as a band.

This inspired the color palette for the peony! This paper pack has so many bright and vivid papers in it. They are fun to mix and match.

I colored up the peony with Copic markers using: YR15, R21, E01.
These are colors I just plucked out of my markers and made them work together to create a peachy-orange color.

Coloring this flower was the longest part of this entire card. Once I was finished coloring the flower, I added some Dark Brown colored pencils in the “Nooks & Crannies.”

For some extra interest, I added some yellow Liquid Pearls to the center of the flower. These will dry raised and add a tactile element to the card.

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!
