SONY DSC

Hello everyone~

It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC69)! This week Barbara Anders is hosting! Barbara is challenging us to a one layered card. Not much explanation required with this challenge! Go have fun and show us what you can do!

We have one more challenge for you to try! --  A Flourishes  Cherry Blossom stamp set is up for grabs on one of the FOF blog's today!  To win it just visit all the FOF blogs and leave a comment on each blog. One winner will be chosen from all the comments combined.

For my card, I used a beautiful set, Fancy Edges for the lace border and Tag Lines for the sentiment. I embossed around the sentiment using Nestabilities Label 13 die and punched the border on the bottom of the card front. The black card piece was adhered on the inside of the card so that the border detail showed more :)

To finish the card, I attached the gingham ribbon bow and pearls for the lace border.

This card took only 10 minutes to make….I think writing about the card took longer for me, hee hee.

 

 

 

Just keep hopping along to the other FOF blog team members to leave your comment !! The more you leave your comment, the more chance to win ;) Good luck!

 

 

 

 

Stamps: Fancy Edges, Tag Lines (Flourishes)
Paper: aqua mist (PTI), basic black (SU)
Ink: Memento tuxedo black (Tsukineko)

Thank you for stopping by.

    Hello,

    I've been a subscriber for awhile, and am constantly impressed with that you can artistically on your cards. I just bought this lace edges set, and you've completely inspired me to see what I can do with it too.

    Blessings to you,

    Joanne
