Flourishes LC - You are in my Prayers

Hello friends, today I have a card to share using one of the New Release sets from Flourishes lc - called Small Words of Love and Kindness stamp set - these sentiments are small, they add a the perfect touch to a card that is from the heart.  I have combined it with the Year in Flowers 2 stamp set.

Year in Flowers 2 

Small Words of Love and Kindness

Perfectly Pierced Hour Glass Die Set

The image has been stamped onto Flourishes Classic White card stock using black ink and coloured using Chameleon Pens.  It has been fussy cut/hand cut using scissors popped up; using 3D Foam Squares on a Die Cut.  

The sentiment from the Small Words of Love and Kindness stamp set has been stamped using the wonderful new sentiment sets using Tuxedo Black Ink and cut/embossed using the Perfectly Pierced Hour Glass Die Set .It is then popped up onto the Filigree Die cut, embossed white card stock using  Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares, this has all been layered onto a pre-cut card base.

A beautiful double seam binding bow has been adhere to the left of the layered Dies and a button with a twine bow threaded through has been glued to the knot.  Finishing off using Want2Scrap green pearls.

Flourishes Friday Free for All Blog Hop - Interactive Card

Hello Flourishes Friends! Welcome to the first Flourishes LC Free for All Blog Hop for December  - I hope you are ready for more inspiration today.  This week Rebecca has challenged us to create an 'interactive card' - are you intrigued?!?  I know I was!!  If you have come from Beverly's Blog you are in the right place, if not, please go to the Flourishes Blog and start from the beginning.  

                                                       I have used the Year in Flower 2  illustrated by Beverly Cole.

 I have stamped the Californian Poppy three times onto Flourishes Classic White card stock using black ink and coloured them using Chameleon Art Pens. They have been fussy cut/ hand cut out and popped up on to layered Die cuts.  The sentiment has also been stamped onto Flourishes Classic White card stock using black ink.  It has been trimmed and layered into green card stock and popped across the stems of the poppies.  The layered Dies are popped up onto embossed designer paper, followed by a pre-cut card base.  A twine bow and small button have been added to the left of the sentiment.

I have made the card 'interactive' by creating a pocket - to put a Gift Card or cash.  I have repeated the Californian Poppy and softly coloured it in the same tones as the front.  A sentiment from the Clover and Bees Stamp set has been added to the pocket using black ink.

Flourishes LC Friday Blog Hop

Hello Flourishes Friends! Welcome to another Flourishes LC October Challenge  - I hope you enjoyed the projects that were shared with the New Release - and are ready for more inspiration today. Thank you for the lovely comments you made - each one was read and appreciated!  This week Tricia has challenged us to use patterned paper on our cards!  If you have come from Beverly's Blog you are in the right place, if not, please go to the Flourishes Blog and start from the beginning.  Please join us welcoming new designer Barb Thompson to our Team

I have used the image from the  Winter Blooms illustrated by Beverly Cole.

  I have stamped the Poinsettia onto Flourishes Classic White card stock using black ink and coloured them using Chameleon Art Pens. It has been fussy cut/ hand cut out and popped up on to Christmas Stocking card base, using  3D Foam Squares onto a Die-cut, 

I have used Joyous by Authentique Paper which is available in the Flourishes LC Store.  I have highlighted the branches using a Gold Gel Pen, but is hard to see in the photo; red rhinestones have been added to create 'faux quilting'.  Finishing off with Gold Thread and a Christmas Bell.  Nice and easy and that Poinsettia is definitely the star.  This would be a very easy card to mass produce for those who are looking for something a little different this year.
