For both cards I focused on the white camellia, as I used the apple earlier in the hop. I like the elegance but also the friendly nature of that flower. For the first card I used light gray copics and a bit of yellow in the center with some matching DP and nice, wide ribbon from Mark's Finest Papers to accent the flower.
For this next one I was going for a folksy/elegant look if you can achieve that, which is why I mixed the gingham paper with the woven basket background on the linen backdrop. The sentiment is from the Background Fun set but the focus is on the camellia, accented with two shades of ink, watercolored on with an aquapainter. Thanks for looking.
This is the complete hop order, if you go all the way to the end, you will find yourself at Mark's Finest Papers store front. Happy hopping!

Peggysue--these cards are beautiful! I especially love the first one with the background made of the camellia! Wonderful job. TFS
Love the camellias!!
I love the way you've created the background on the first card - it looks amazing. Heather
Both of your cards are heavenly! Perfect colors and placement.
Love all you cards but am in love with the top one, the background and the cut out camelia works perfectly!

Who would have thought that gray flowers could be so pretty! Apparently you did -- and you were so right!
You've achieved two completely different styled cards with the same stamp and that's great! I think the first has a vintage appeal, while the 2nd is very summery, and I love how you combined the basketweave background with the woven sentiment! They're both fabulous cards!
Both are lovely PeggySue but that first one stole my heart. It is sooooooo elegant and romantic!! Love it!! Hugs, Judi
I love the second card. I just love how you tied the ribbon, so chic.

Great cards, Peggysue! The first one is especially gorgeous!
these are both so beautiful, love how you popped up the flower and the colors you used.
Outstanding! Love that background on the first card.
These are 2 lovely but very different looks using the same stamp. My favourite is the top one the way you have used the camellia stamp has given the card a very sophisticated look!
Cards are beautiful. Especially like the first with the camellia background and Basic Grey patterned paper. You made a grey card look so elegant!! TFS

Beautiful cards! I have tried to peek at them all. You are so talented!
I haven't done the blog hop, but sure am enjoying your take with all these beautiful stamps, Peggysue!! The Camellia is so pretty, love the way you've paired it with the dp in the first, and it's so pretty with gingham in the second!
Peggysue--these are really fabulous! Great job on both but I especially like the second. I love that sentiment and cool way to do the ribbon.
BOTH of these cards are gorgeous! So elegant & classy! Love the embossing!
