Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC47)!

It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC47)! Thanks so much to you all for playing along in last week's stenciling challenge! Keep reading to find out who won!

The Friends of Flourishes blog design team are bringing you exciting and different challenges each week. Everyone can PLAY and anyone can WIN! Make sure you continue reading to find out how. Each week Flourishes gives away a store gift certificate for $10 to the lucky random draw participant. In addition to this, Flourishes also gives away a monthly gift certificate for $10 to one lucky monthly challenge winner. So, if you did not complete any challenge during the month, you still have a chance to win. Just link your card with Mr. Linky!

This week Cindy Haffner is our host. Cindy is challenging us to ATC or Artist Trading Cards. These wonderfully sized trading cards 2.5 X 3.5 are perfect for making quick last minute cards. If you make a bunch ahead of time all you need to do is add it to a card base. Get creative with these trading cards and join us in the fun! Here is a link from SCS to give you alittle more insight into ATC. We would love to see what you create!


Let's see what Cindy Haffner designed for us this week ATC style! Cindy is using Flourishes Christmas Music background and Flourished Christmas sets. Can you believe she is using a rolodex card to make this beauty? I am just as shocked as you! It is simply gorgeous and completely altered from its original look. Cindy stamped the reindeer. She stamped it again onto cardstock, colored with Flourishes Copic Color Collection in Flesh Tones. She cut the reindeer out to adhere over the original stamped image to create some wonderful depth. She finished with some perfectly placed gold rhinestone detailing. Love all the warm toned sponging, too! Beautifully done, Cindy!

A Christmas gift

Happy Sunday, and happy holidays! Have you finished all your Christmas shopping yet? How about a homemade gift?

I've made a small set of cards for todays post, and It's wrapped up too:) We still have a few days until christmas, so why not create something special for someone you care about?

I used one of my all time favorite Flourishes sets, the Poinsetta and Boxwood for my gift.



I made a simple gift box from cardstock, and created an acetate window, to give the recipient a "sneak peek" at the contents...


I decorated the box with elegant Satin Ribbon and Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Pendants die cuts.


A close-up of the window. The poinsetta was colored with Le Plume Markers and cut out.


Inside the box.... You`ll find several of the dies used in the Flourishes store.


The set of cards...








...so now I just want to wish all of you a MERRY CHRISTMAS!! And thank you so much to the Flourishes Ladies for having me here in the Limelight, I so enjoyed it! ...And thank you to everyone who has visited me here and at my blog!! I'm wishing you all a happy, creative new year too!

Friday Focus **White Space**

Now don't go running off when you read WHITE SPACE.... Its nothing to be afraid of, TRUST Stacy... Yep its me bringing you the Flourishes Focus! I am going to share with you some of the ways I use white space. I LOVE a lot of white clean space on my cards. It might be my OCD coming out onto cards! I just think the clean and simple look sometimes is what makes the card pop. I will show you the two common ways I use it.

First we have the single layer of white space I use a lot. I have a little color with the ribbon and paper. My Dove and Holly is the focal point and I added a little bit of sparkle to the leaves. I used the Copic collections Spring greens, Flesh tones and Dusty Rose. Very simple.

Below is what I call my layered white space. I have used the set A year of Flowers calendar set 2. I still have a lot of white space but I broke it up into two layers, and see it still looks so clean and fresh. Copic Collections I used were Dusty Rose, Fields and Sweet Peas. I added a little white crochet ribbon and pearls to top it off.

See white space is nothing to be afraid of! Give it a TRY! Now check out what the DT came up with for their version of White Space!

Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC46)!

It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC46)! Thanks so much to you all for playing along in last week's gatefold challenge! Keep reading to find out who won!


The Friends of Flourishes blog design team are bringing you exciting and different challenges each week. Everyone can PLAY and anyone can WIN! Make sure you continue reading to find out how. Each week Flourishes gives away a store gift certificate to the lucky random draw participant. In addition to this, Flourishes also gives away a monthly gift certificate to one lucky winner. So, if you did not complete any challenge during the month, you still have a chance to win. Just link your card with Mr. Linky!


This week Betty Wright is our host. I am challenging everyone to stenciling. Stenciling is really popular right now in cardmaking. You can use your spellbinder templates, stencil a fluffy scalloped sky, or use other stencils either store bought or handmade to add some stenciling to your card this week. Here are a couple of links from SCS to give you alittle more insight into stenciling. Tutorial 1 and Tutorial 2. We would love to see what you create!


For my card I am using one of the new released sets called A Year of Flowers Calendar Set 1 and Seasonal Wreaths for the sentiment. For the stenciling portion of my card, I chose to use two of the spellbinders impressabilities. I am using Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock which is wonderful for coloring with copics. I colored my January flower using Flourishes Copic Color Collection. I finished my card with punch border, ribbon, and sentiment tags!

Your Flourishes Friends!

Grab a Christmas cookie and coffee, it's time to chat.

Several years ago, a bride wrote to Miss Manners asking if she really needed to send thank you cards to everyone who sent her a gift. Couldn't she just attach a thank you blurb to their party favor at the reception?

Miss Manners responded frankly: choosing not to send a thank you note communicates to the giver of each gift that his thought, time, and money spent to select a gift for you was not worth five minutes of writing and a postage stamp.

Have you ever sent a gift to someone in the mail, and you anxiously await her call or note to see if she liked it? And then, you wonder if she even got it? Maybe it got lost in the mail? Maybe you wrote the wrong address. Maybe she just didn't like it and doesn't know what to say.

But, we rarely think ourselves rude while we neglect our thank yous. It's happened to all of us--time slips away, and we just never take the moments to send a note of gratitude for the kindness someone has shown us.

Christmastime revives us with kindness and joy and generosity. Let it also renew in us a readiness to acknowledge the kindnesses shown to us through gifts. Generosity and gratitude go hand in hand. Let's set our minds to give and receive with joy!



















Here are some thank you cards for inspiration! Our newest florals -- A Year of Flowers Calendar Sets 1,2, and 3-- would make gorgeous gratitude notes! Personally, I think the Thank You set is an essential. I would love to see the 'thank yous' you make. Feel free to post them in the comments for us to 'ooo' and 'aaah' over!



Thanks for stopping by!

Easter Blessings!

Hi! It`s me, Yvonne. I hope you`re all having a wonderful Sunday!
Christmas is not here just yet, but I`m already preparing for Easter...

This week I`m sharing a card using the beautiful Easter Blessings set.



I also thought I`d share a little tutorial on how I use the Distress Inks to color my images. I know that most of you use Copics these days, but I still hold on to my Inks:)


These are my supplies. I use an aqua brush to pick up the color from the palette. You can use both reinkers and pads.


Starting to color the cross with Antique Linen.


Using Vintage Photo to color up the darker parts of the cross. These are the two steps I usually do - a lighter color first, and a darker color for the shaded areas.


Shabby Shutters for the leaves. I've used a stamp pad here. Pick up the color from an acrylic block or directly from the pad.


I like my leaves a little more vibrant, so I'm adding color from a marker. Picking up the color just like I did with the stamp pad.


Then I add some Peeled Paint for the shading on the leaves.


For the flowers I`m using Fired Brick. Starting where I want the darkest color...


...pulling the color towards the middle.


Repeat on all the flowers. One of the things I love about watercoloring is that you can add more color at any time - even after drying.


To create a luminous effect, I added some yellow color from a marker around the cross. I also added some yellow to the flowers for a warmer color.


For this card I stamped, colored and cut out two of the flowers a second time, and added them using dimensionals. I also used a white gel pen for highlights and added pearls.

I hope this inspired you to pull out whatever coloring medium you like to use, and have some fun!

See you back here next Sunday!

The thermometer may be closer to winter right now in many parts of the country, but there are certain timeless images that we just can't seem to get enough of.... all year long! And, that's the mission behind this gorgeous new series of Flourishes florals!

Introducing....

One stamp set we've talked about for a while at Flourishes is a set that really captures the flowers of the year and does so in a way and in a size that can be incorporated into gift sets, calendars, or card sets! Marcella Hawley put her pen to paper and created just the series for us! It is so beautiful, our entire design team was drooling over these images!

The Friends of Flourishes blog design team are bringing you exciting and different challenges each week. Flourishes gives away a store gift certificate each week. Random.org decides who wins!! Everyone can PLAY and anyone can WIN! Make sure you continue reading to find out how.

This week Cindy Haffner is our challenge host. Cindy is challenging us to gatefold cards. Here are a couple of links to help you get started from SCS. Gatefold 1 and Gatefold 2. Gatefold cards are great year round, but something about opening a card from two sides this time of year gives a more regal, gift-like presentation. We love to see what you create.


Let's see what Cindy Haffner created for you this week with the gatefold design. Cindy is using the Dove and Holly stamp set. I love how she stamped the smaller image in black onto the deep rich red cardstock and accented with white gel pen. The spellbinder frame is beautiful layered with the circle and scalloped circle nestabilities. Great colors and patterns, too1 Beautiful detailing and design, Cindy! Gorgeous!

Framed Nasturtiums

Hi everyone! It's Yvonne. I am absolutely thrilled to be here today as the Limelight Designer for December! I hope you will enjoy this little project of mine.

I guess it`s no secret that I love my Spellbinders dies, and I thought I`d share with you a simple way to take your dies to the "next level". This frame will show off your favorite image in a beautiful and elegant way, I think.


I used the Nasturtiums set for this card, and colored it with Distress Inks. Here is a little step by step on the frame:



I`ve used Spellbinders Classic Frame. I cut out two white frames and two green ones. I also used the Labels One dies to create the "inner" frame.


Cut the frames as shown on the photo.


Glue the white pieces onto the green pieces as shown. Using a darker color at the back creates a shadow-effect and gives depth to the frame.


Glue the four pieces together as shown.


Attach the Labels one- frame as shown. I sponged the frame lightly with brown ink. Decorate with some Pearls, and your frame is ready to go!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you`ve found some inspiration to how you can frame your favorite images. And I sure hope to see you back here next Sunday!
