Timeless Tuesday #166

Hello!  Heather here, I am your challenge hostess this week and I have a great challenge for you.  BINGO!  All you need to do is include 3 items from the graphic either across or diagonal on your project.  That simple!

I used Flourishes Classic White Cardstock and Tailor Made Classic Tag Die set.  The stamp set used here is Botanical Bookplates Vol. 2.  Two inks used are Tim Holtz Old Paper and Memento Tuxedo Black and Rich Brown.  I also used Copic Collection: Green Grass.

I chose the bottom across…blue, flowers, emboss.  ***You do NOT have to use an actual embossing folder.  A Spellbinder die embosses as well, so they count as emboss.

I can’t wait to see what you create!

Heather

Timeless Tuesday #165

Good Morning, Amanda here, and I am so excited to be hosting my very first Timeless Tuesday challenge! I want to challenge you to show your love of Flourishes stamps by using your favorite Flourishes stamp set!

I love all of Flourishes beautiful stamps, and I had a hard time picking just one, but I love this set. It is so happy and carefree looking, you can almost see them nodding in the breeze!

For my card I chose Flourishes With Gratitude set from their FLIP Loyalty program. It’s stamped in  Memento Tuxedo Black on Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock, then I cut it all out with my craft knife. The sentiment is from Flourishes Tiny Flowers and Tags set. For the background, I stamped Flourishes new Antique Lace  in Memento Desert Sand on a Spellbinders Labels #21 . Then I framed my flowers with a cut out Spellbinders Labels #20 placed over my image. I finished everything with some pearls to add some elegance.

Please be sure to read the rules below for more details on our challenges.
