It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC99)!  Happy New Year!  Thanks so much for everyone who played in last week’s pearl challenge!    Can you believe we are at challenge number 99?   WOW! 

 Before I tell you about this week’s challenge, I want to remind you to be here next week for Flourishes FTTC100th Challenge Blog Hop Celebration! You are not going to want to miss it!

Now, on to this week’s challenge!   Barbara Anders is our challenge host.  Barbara is challenging us to  flowers!   Just add  flowers of any kind to your card or project!   In the mist of all the cold temps and snowy conditions in many parts of the world, we are going to brighten and warm things up a bit with some flowers!   We would love to see what you create!

Let’s take a look at what Barbara created for us!

 Barbara is using Flourishes Thank You stamp set.   She stamped the script sentiment that comes in the set using Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.  She deckled the edges and softly sponged to create a soft vintage feel and used it  as the focus of her card.  She  colored using Flourishes Copic Color Collection and cut out the beautifully stemmed tulip to use as an accent.   Take note that the base of her card also uses Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.  This cardstock is weighty enough to use as a cardbase.  She used various patterns from  Webster Pages Petite Papers Combo Pack – Hollywood Vogue & WonderFALL.    Absolutely gorgeous, Barbara!

Check out what the blog team designers create with flowers!

    Before I tell you about this week’s challenge, I just wanted to remind you that  in a few short weeks, Flourishes FTTC Challenge will be celebrating its 100th Challenge with a blog hop!  Trust me…you will not want to miss it! Everyone can play! More details coming soon! Mark your calendars for Tuesday, January 11, 2011!

    Now, on to this week’s challenge.   This week Betty Wright is our challenge host. I am challenging everyone to pearls. You can add individual, colorful, big, small, flourished, or swirled pearls to your cards/projects. We look forward to seeing what you create!

    Let’s check out what I created using pearls!

     

    I am using Flourishes Apple of My Eye and Forest of Trees stamp sets.  I was going for a masculine themed card using pearls.  Is it possible?    I think I did it!   Masculine Elegance is a good thing.    I am using some Webster Pages Petite Papers Combo Pack – Hollywood Vogue & WonderFALL.   I love the blend of patterns and  textures looks that can work beautifully for girly cards or, in this case, masculine.  I added some machine sewing stitches along with  a rich navy satin bow and touches of gold pearls to finish the look. 

    Check out what the blog team designers create using pearls!
