Say Hello to some beautiful Hyacinths!

Hi all and welcome to a Friday full of inspiration courtesy the Flourishes' design team. Today our team decided to focus on an oldie but goodie with their posts and that set is......

HELLO HYACINTHS!

 

With spring here, what a perfect set to use for your cards and creations! And, want to know another fun fact? Flourishes recently added a Silhouette Cut File to match this set that you can find HERE!

On to my creation!
 I started by cutting the large hyacinth using my Silhouette, a piece of Flourishes Classic White Card Stock and the new Hello Hyacinth Cut File. I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then grabbed my Copic Markers using these collections!

 
 
After coloring it up, the rest is just matting and I have to say, I am really low on purple papers, so I had to grab some scraps from my scrap bin to put this card together. I did accent with some cotton lace, some pearls and a bit of paper piercing.

Here's a close up of the flowers -- the centers were accented with a bit of Liquid Pearls....


And that, my friends, is it! Now it's time for some fabulous inspiration and all you need to do is hop and leave these ladies below some love in the form of a comment! I know they'd love to hear from you!
Thanks for stopping by! For those that celebrate, I hope you have a peaceful and blessed Easter! I will be back soon so, until then, Happy Stamping!
