Let's all HOP!

Did you see Flourishes has a noon time challenge going on today to celebrate their August Release! Why should you play? Well, the winnings are fabulous! You could walk away with not one, not two, not three but FOUR of our newest stamp sets! And trust us, they are all beauties!

Let’s get started!

This noon time challenge, Flourishes will have you going on a bit of a hunt and that’s why they are calling this our Scavenger Hop! Each one of the 8 designers’ blogs (including the Flourishes Blog) will have a different “ingredient” that you will need to include on your challenge creation!

Since this is the second leg of the Scavenger Hop, are you ready for your second clue? (If this is your first stop, you'll want to click HERE to travel to the Flourishes Blog for your first clue!)

Here is your second clue!

That's right, you have to have some "bling" on your card or creation!

On to my creation!


Well, for starters, I used Flourishes' new Hollyhocks stamp set. I tell ya, this one is a beauty! So, some other elements on my card? How about some Orgins BasicGrey paper, white cotton linen ribbon, and Webster's Pages Sparklers? (Yep, that's my bling! That rhinestone on the center of the button is my sparkle!) I did stamp on Flourishes Classic White with Tuxedo Black Memento and then, reached for my Copic Markers. I used the Dahlia, Fields and Hollyhock Collections and then highlighted around my image with Y21, Y23 and YR0000. Mat it up and add a sentiment from the set and.... voila!
