Finishing Touches Day 2!

Hi all! Hope your week is going well! I can't believe it is almost over. I guess that is the benefit of having a three day weekend --right?

Yesterday, Flourishes started to unveil its brand new line of elegant embellishments called Finishing Touches! Like I said yesterday, these embellies are like the icing on the cake, the cherry on the sundae, the... well, you get my drift!

Today, the DT is showing off another element from this line called Stunning Slides!

Aren't these gorgeous? There are 18 slides in this kit with three of each design. They are available in three metal finishes ~ gold, silver and antique copper! They are just too pretty for words. And, what I love is that they are really light weight - they won't weigh down your card one bit!

So.... here's what I cooked up!

I used the Sweet Violets set and stamped it on a shape cut by the Labels 2 Nestabilities die and colored it with the soon to be released Violet and Spring Greens Copic Collections. The designer paper I used is from the Urban Prairie and Euphoria colelctions from Basic Grey.

Because I didn't want to overpower my main image, I thought this little heart ribbon slide was just the perfect size! I slid it onto a piece of reversible lavender/purple satin ribbon.


You'll have to check out what Christine and Latisha created with these elegant new embellishments!
Thanks for stopping by!

This is absolutely divine! I love all the wonderful color and how the flowers just look so real. I can almost smell their sweet scent.
Beautiful embellishment too.

How pretty! These are really cool embellishments. And I like the paper you chose to go with this image. Even if it's a short week, you're batting 1000!

Oh, oh, oh! So pretty, Julie! I just love ribbon slides and, you're right, one of the main attractions about these is how lightweight they are. What a gorgeous card!
