Hearts & Flowers for YOU!

Love is in the air and you can tell when you look at Flourishes January stamp set release! Each and every set puts a different spin on Valentine's Day creations! Let's start with the most elegant set, penned by Marcella Hawley!

Introducing....

Hearts & Flowers Graphic

This gorgeous set mixes some of the loveliest florals shaped for the season of love. We have hydrangea, roses and daisies. This set also features some gorgeously scripted sentiments that all ramp up the romantic feel! Would you like to win this set? Simply leave a comment on this post.

On to my creation! I just absolutely love the rose heart in this set and so, of course, I reached for it for my card today!
Here are the deets! After stamping with Tuxedo Black Memento, I colored it up with a mix of Copics in shades of pink - RV32, RV34, RV02, RV00. Mat it onto a piece of Flourishes Classic White card stock that was cut in a Labels 14 shape and sponged with Angel Pink Memento. Add a circle tag with one of the sentiments from the set and attach it to your silk ribbon with some silver cording. The rest is just adding a decorative border, a stitched edge and some fun little rhinestones! the paper I used is a mix from my scaps. Part of it is from the BasicGrey Junebug collection.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! You know I love pink roses and that I needed so desperately to see them tonight. I just came in from adjusting the s-n-o-w. BAHH!
Your card is stunningly gorgeous! My eye likes that labels 14 and how you used it for the layer under the heart. Really sets it off along with the decorative border, that lush ribbon, those rhinestones... {heavy sigh}
