May is peony season here, though this year, I have a knockout rose that bloomed before the pink peonies did - it's been a weird spring! We have old-fashioned peonies, transplants from a neighbor, in white, red (really dark pink), and pale pink, but I've seen pictures of yellow ones, so today I brought out an old favorite die set that is amazingly still available and made a card with them.
supplies: white, blue, yellows, and greens cardstock, blue gingham dp, Altenew Peony Dream dies, Pink Fresh Studio (retired) Phrase Builder Sending dies, Lawn Fawn Fancy Scalloped Rectangle dies
Peonies are one of God's miracles! The amount of petals in a single flower blows my mind! Here's a photo of one of our white ones.
Have a lovely day!

I'm crushing on your sweet blue gingham with that big yellow bloom! This is a delightful card, Lin. Pretty peony pic too. My mom has pink ones blooming and they smell heavenly!
Lin, I love your blue gingham with this yellow peony - believe me when I say the yellows are not as pretty as your white! But even my pink only has one bud so far - strange Spring indeed!

I do love the blue gingham and the yellow peony looks perfect on it. Your white peony is beautiful and yes, it does have a lot of petals.
Fabulous card Lin. Love the yellow and blue colour combo.
Gorgeous yellow peony atop the gingham, Lin! And I'm jealous - your white peony looks amazing!!
