Fun Fold Friday- Prized Peony Card

 

Fun Fold Friday with the retiring Prize Peony Stamp Set and Peony Dies (half off)! 

I've been wanting this set for a long time and just barely got it part of the Last Chance Deals. My Grandmother loved Peonies and had them in her garden, so I knew I had to have it, but the dies scared me. My style isn't to use "builder" dies. Things that have lots of pieces. But this was lot of easier to make then I had thought. Be sure to watch my video at the bottom to see how to make your Peonies too! 

This Fold Fold created a pocket to slide your message in and out. 

You could even slide in a gift card, cash or check as a gift. This style would be great for a wedding or graduation card even. 

This card was made for my friend's family. My friend recently passed away and was the sweetest person and loved my "Flower Fridays".  I plan to share some sweet memories of her with her family in here.
