The "Peony Bouquet" is one of my favorite Altenew stamp sets, this time I only used the outline and the third shade stamp in the set, stamped with SU "Hello Honey" ink and colored it with Sakura Koi watercolor markers and Prismacolor pencils for shading.

The sentiment is from a retired SU set called "Climbing Roses" (2019 Occasions Mini), the butterfly is from a My Favorite Things called "Beautiful Butterflies".
