Happy Tuesday! Betty Wright here as your FTTC129 Challenge host this week! My challenge this week is easy peasy. All you have to do is make a card or project showcasing your favorite flower or flowers! Our gallery should be blooming with beauties this week! Looking forward to seeing what you create!
For my card, I am using Flourishes Spring Bouquet for the focal image and images from Sweet Nature, Moments in Time, and Strips and Stripes stamp sets to make my background patterns. I am using Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock. I stamped my Spring Bouquet and colored with Flourishes Copic Color Collection. I used some Spellbinder’s for focal image and tag. I also used the negative space from the postage frame in Spellbinder’s Creative Book Pages die to create a unique ivory border. I added some sparkle with a must have Quickie glue pen! I finished with a piece of ivory crocheted trim and seam binding with bow!
We so enjoyed having Shannon White join us as Guest Designer for July, and now with a new month we welcome a new Guest… Allison Cope! We know you’re going to love see what Allison will bring to the Timeless Tuesday challenges this month!
In addition to a new Guest Designer for August, we also have the thrill of welcoming a new member of our team today! We couldn’t be happier, and KNOW you’re going to be well-inspired by the addition of Beate Johns to our team!

Betty those flowers are just gorgeous, they come to life. A beautiful card!
Love all of those cards… especially those with sunflowers
They are so cheerful.
Lovely challenge … I adore using flowers in my designs!! It would be hard to pick a favorite DT project … they all are stunning, but I think Makiko’s is my favorite this time — gorgeous! I’ve visited all the DT blogs and linked a banner I created using flowers on each pennant! Thanks, as always, for the wonderful inspiration
wauw i love this challenge, love flowers, the designteam have made gorgeous cards lots of inspirations!!!

A flowwer challenge was right up my alley 
Thank you for the challenge! I left some love on every blog
It has been awhile since I played, but I figure since I follow Betty over at ODB I might as well follow her over here too. And since I love Flourish stamps, ink these babies up.
Flowers truly bring out the best in everyone!! Breathtaking cards!! Linked up too.
Hi..I’m so glad I fell upon this flower challenge. I just recently finished making a paper flower bouqet for my dear friend who is ill. Happy that I’m able to share my flowers with your blog. Holly
i linked my card and just got done commenting… amazing projects (as always!) from the dt… they rock!
The DT provided stunning samples again this week! I’ve left comments & linked my card.
Gorgeous creations ladies! I love flowers! I linked my card and left my comments!!!
I have made comments on all the flowers on the DT posts and I must say, I love everyone of the cards. So many ideas. Of course, Flourishes has the very best floral stamps of any manufacturer. I’m not saying that to get any brownie points either. My entry is in…love this challenge. Thanks
