FTTC52F Hosted By Maki Jones

Hello everyone, it's Maki Jones and I'm hosting the final challenge of Flourishes Timeless Tuesday One Year Anniversary Challenge (FTTC52F)!! My challenge is from FTTC10 - Use our favorite Flourishes stamp set. Many more fabulous sets were released from Flourishes after the original challenge was posted. So, I thought it would be fun to play with the challenge again :)


If you do not yet own any Flourishes stamps, you can still play! Just choose your favorite stamp set ever. You may win a prize for your first Flourishes set after all :):)





Here is my sample....
I used my favorite set, Gerbera Daisies set and stamped the image and the sentiment on the classic white cardstock with Memento tuxedo black. The same cardstock was also used for the card base. The image was colored with Copic markers from the Copic collections. The paper toile was done for a couple of the flowers. The background layer is from the designer paper is from Basic Gray Pantry & Nook. The green border was made with the border punch and the photo corners was used the photo corner punch. The ribbon and the brown pearls are used to embellish the card.






Please check out the following links to see more samples by our past FTTC challenge designers using their favorite Flourishes stamp set!

FTTC52E Hosted by Kimberly



Challenge: Frame It Up! FTTC52E


For this challenge, I want you to use a frame. You can cut a frame out using Spellbinders Nestabilities or use a pre-made frame. Consider using something other than cardstock to make your frame, like chipboard, felt, fabric, ribbon, or lace.








On my card, I stamped Gerbera daisies onto white cardstock. I colored the image in with Copics. Using a knife, I cut out the outside edges of the flowers because I knew that I wanted to lay the frame behind the front flowers. Then I cut out a frame with Spellbinders Megabilities. (For a tutorial on making frames with Spellbinders, click HERE.) I placed the frame underneath the flowers and stamped the sentiment on top of the frame. The frame was foam mounted to the card base. A button-tied bow was added to the bottom. Can you tell I am ready for spring? :)

Supplies:
Stamps-Flourishes (Gerbera Daisies, Seasonal Wreaths) Spellbinders (Nestabilities Mega Deckled Rectangles Small) Copics (The Fields, Hydrangea, Sunflower), Cardstock (Flourishes Classic White)

Check out the frame projects from these fabulous ladies:

FTTC52A Hosted by Cindy



As we kick off our Timeless Tuesday Anniversary Celerbation, Cindy Haffner is going to kick things off with our first challenge of the day! The Friends of Flourishes team decided to pick some of their favorite challenges from this past year and today Cindy is doing a remake of (FTTC13). Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge 13 was a sketch challenge.


Here is her card...


And, here is the sketch!




As far as sketches go, there is not much explanation necessary. You can turn it and enlarge the sections to fit your card size. However, in the end, it should still look like the sketch. Good Luck!!!! Looking forward to seeing what you create with it!!!




What was used on Cindy's Card:




Check out these blogs for samples made with Cindy's sketch. Carol Lee, Fran Gumprecht, Deena Perreault, Connie McCotter, Liz Williams, Linda Lucas, Stacy Morgan and Kathy Jones. These gals are doing more then one challenge, so be sure to scroll down on their blogs, to see all their FABULOUS work.
