It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC64)!  It is the end of the month so we have a challenge hostess!  This week Karen Wallace is our host! Thanks so much for hosting with us Karen!   Karen is challenging us to vintage styled cards!  Everyone sort of has in their own minds what vintage means to them, so without giving you any direction, just create a card that defines a vintage style to you!  We would love to see what you create! 

Also, just wanted to remind everyone that while each FTTC challenge has a weekly winner, we also draw a monthly winner from all of the FTTC for that month.  So, if there was a challenge in April you still would like to participate in, there is still a chance to win!  You can play as often as you like!  Check out FTTC61, FTTC62, and FTTC63! The weekly and monthly winners will be announced next week!
Let’s go see what Karen’s vintage creation!

FTTC63 Winner!

It is the end of the month and time for a guest challenge designer! This week our challenge host is Pat Adam. Thanks so much hosting with us, Pat! And here is Pat’s challenge written in her on words. “For this week’s challenge be inspired by the letter P. Sounds a bit crazy, but not really if you think about it for a bit. I’m thinking pink, pearls, poppies, purple, punches, and piercing. Do you get the picture? Sure you do so let’s get moving and make those perfectly pretty and positively pleasing presentations. Don’t think you’ve been challenged in this way before, so I will be excited to see how you all do.” Pat

Let’s check out what Pat Adam created for us with the inspired by the letter “P” challenge! Pat is using the Poppy Patch and Gerber Daisy stamp sets. She is using soft pink cardstock and patterned paper. I just love the wonderful poppy arrangement Pat stamped. She colored her poppies using soft colors of pinks from the Flourishes Copic Color Collection. She used different Spellbinder’s die cuts to give added detailing to her focal image. She finished her card with a beautiful pink satin ribbon bow and accented with pearls! Please check out her blog for more card details!

It is the last Tuesday of the month and we have a guess challenge host for you. This month our challenge host is Carol Lee. Please give her a warm welcome! We are so thrilled to have Carol host with us. Carol is challenging us to themed cards. Since this week we celebrate Thanksgiving as well as kick off the Christmas Season, Carol is challenging us to Thank You and/or Christmas themed cards. You can choose one theme or create one of each. Or like many, you may need to finish up a few Christmas cards in time for mailing next week. Whichever you choose, we look forward to seeing what you create! Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!

Let’s see what Carol Lee has created using the themed challenge! Carol chose to create a Christmas themed card. She is using Flourishes Forrest of Trees and the Basketweave background sets. Carol is using some Basicgray Indian Summer dp. Carol stamped the basketweave with razzleberry ink to make it pop on the dark pink solid paper from the dp pack. She stamped the tree and embossed with a woodland white ep. She add some tinsel glitter to give the tree some extra sparkle. Carol finished her Christmas card with some satin burgandy ribbon! Gorgeous Christmas card, Carol! Beautifully done!

Let’s see what Kathy Jones created using borders! She is using Flourishes Gerbera Daisy set. She colored the daisies using Flourishes Copic Color Collections in Crocus. Kathy cut out the entire arrangement and popped it up on a textured oval center. She then layered that with the Spellbinders label 5. I love all the beautiful cut work detailing and dimension. Kathy accented the whole arrangement with fleur de lis punch border frames. She finished her gorgeous card with some kaiser pearls. Beautifully done, Kathy!!!

I am using spellbinders flourish impressabilities for background textures, label eight, and label six die cuts. I finished my card with some sheer ribbon and red kaiser pearls.

Cindy Haffner is next. Cindy is using the newly released Falling Leaves set. Cindy has combined sever spellbinder die cuts and pendants to create a layered frame with the sentiment and leaf coming out of the frames.
