Introducing....

  

Put a little glam on your cards and creations with this super posh, vintage-inspired set all about girls -- Glamour Girls that is! Featuring two main images, a pearl border and more than a half dozen beautifully scripted sentiments. This set, illustrated by Lauren Pope, measures 4 by 6" and is perfect for all of your "gal pal" creations! What fun! You should know that just like in releases past, all of our new sets are available for pre-order -- if you like what you see on our designer's blogs today! And, you can also take advantage of our New Release Bundle for May as well! It's a deal where you can get all of our new sets HERE for 10% off if you purchase as a bundle!

Want a chance to win this stamp set and all the others in the May release? All you need to do is play along with the Timeless Tuesday Challenge this week - FTTC291. HOW DO YOU PLAY? All you need to do is create and use black accents!That's it -- a black mat, black die cut image, black ribbon, you name it! After you are done, just link up your creation over on THIS post! 

On to my creation!

Oh my.. isn't she the cutest thing EVER? I sure think so and I think this little lady creates the most spunky cards to send to your gal pals! I started by using some of the elements from the 123 Create Kit called Love Story. This kit may have been for Valentine's Day but gosh, the papers are fun patterns in red, pink and black that can honestly be used all year long! I added a doily, some splashes of Flourishes black card stock, some black lace from the kit that I accented with sparkly rhinestones! I added a clear button threaded with some silver cording and then came the fun -- coloring up the little lady! I used Copic markers (see the supplies list below for the colors that I used). I also sponged on some Spun Sugar Distress Ink as well while my die cut shape was still on. 

Here's a close up! You can see that I curved one of the sentiments in the set and added that below! I also added a few little rhinestones around her wrist and some glitter glue to her flower and earrings. FUN! 

And that, my friends is it! I simply adore this set and I know you'll love to see what the rest of the Flourishes designers created with it as well! I'm joined not only by the senior design team but the Friends of Flourishes team as well! So, click on over and see what they have in store!
