Another fabulous year to FLIP over!

Hello all! This is an exciting day for Flourishes -- it's the first day folks can shop and qualify for the next fun-filled, money saving club we call.....

   

Otherwise known as the Flourishes Loyalty Incentive Program! How do you become a member? Starting TODAY, the next time you go shopping in the Flourishes online boutique and spend $100 on a single purchase (not including taxes or shipping), you will receive this beautiful stamp set called Happy Thoughts! It was penned by artist Sam Pickard and the fabulous sentiments were the creative genius of Dina Kowal! Keep in mind, you can't purchase this set -- the only way you can get your hands on this lovely floral spray of Hydrangeas and these beautifully scripted sentiments is to become a FLIP member! 

   

AND.... that beautiful stamp set is only just the beginning! When you become a FLIP member, it's your pass to BIG SAVINGS!

Now it wouldn't be fair if we showed you this gorgeous set and didn't show you a card or two? On to my creation!

Because this gorgeous image is so large, I decided to keep my layout sweet and simple! I stamped my image on Flourishes Classic White using Tuxedo Memento Black ink. After stamping, I did stamp the sentiment and then ran my image through my Grand Callibur with the die called Fancy Ribbon Threader. After I was done embossing, I did trim around the embossed edge so that this portion of my flower could set on the main part of the die cut frame. I colored my image with Copic Markers (see list below for what colors I used!) I added a little white seam binding ribbon, a crystal button, some silver cording and... ta da! Done! I did add a little razzle dazzle with the help of some glitter glue. See? 

And that, my friends, is it! If you want to see some amazing samples thanks to Flourishes' team of fabulous designers, hop on over and see what these ever-so-talented ladies created using this exclusive set!

What the Heck????

Ok, I have a card making confession to make. Sometimes, when I blog and take pictures, I am in a hurry. I am distracted. I love the card making process but sometimes the photos, editing and blogging is the extra bit that, at times, I struggle with! So, imagine my surprise when I come back to do another post, hit my blog and notice this from my last post....

After blogging, taking the photo and editing the photo, I never realized that I had a weird paper bit hanging from my card... HANGING FROM MY CARD! As I write this, I am honestly laughing and wanted to share to, in a way, poke fun. You are all the most polite group of folks out there, you didn't say....."Hey Julie, is that a new kind of embellishment there?" or "Julie, what's that little UFO on your dahlias?" Or, better yet, "Do you need glasses?" 

I promise, when I come back to blog Thursday, I will have checked and double checked my card to look for flying objects!  

See you back here soon!

It's SIX for SIX!

 

Today the entire Flourishes Design Team is jumping on the birthday band wagon and helping Flourishes light the candles and roll the music to celebrate SIX fun-filled, creative years!  Today's challenge is all about the right recipe for your cards. So, all you need to do is check out our recipe card below and make sure you use all six. We're calling this challenge -- The SIX for SIX -- six items for six years! So, without further ado -- the recipe!

   

HOW TO PLAY: Like we said, simply use the six items as your recipe for your card or creation. Make sure to use the sketch and be inspired by the colors in the inspiration photo and then, use the other four items as well when you create. This Birthday Celebration Challenge is just that simple! When you are done with your card, don't forget to link up your creation HERE using the Inlinkz widget! For Birthday Celebration Challenge #5, enter as many times as you like. If you upload to Splitcoaststampers, use the keyword FLLCBC5. You have until 11:59 PM CST on July 31st to enter! Winners will be announced Saturday, August 3rd and winners will receive a goody bag from Flourishes valued at $30!

On to my creation!

So, you can see I followed the sketch pretty much to a tee. I had this Dahlia image stamped and ready on my desk and it was even partially colored -- BINGO! Since it was colored in peachy tones, perfect! But, if you look at the stamp, there is another little vase included in this image. I didn't want that one because it wouldn't fit with my sketch -- so thanks to my handy dandy detail scissors -- I cut that part of the image off! I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and then picked up my Copics (see below for the color collections that I used). So, with the sketch and color inspiration done --- I added bling in the form of some gold cording and a little rhinestone bling... See? The gold cording also counts as twine -- so cross off 3 and 4 on the "recipe!"

Now... you have to squint to see #5... but it's there if you look at the main photo for the card. On the tan little flag, I used a fancy fan embossing folder and then sanded down the embossed ridges for a little texture. And... for #6?  My favorite Flourishes stamp (for the time being) HAS to be Dahlias! Oh my, they are beauties!!!! 

And, to give the inside a little something, I stamped the other Dahlia image from the set using peach ink and then grabbed one of the sentiments from the set for the center.. Add a little paper piercing and... voila! Done!

And that, my friends is it! I should mention that there is a whole bunch of fun scheduled for Flourishes 6th Birthday — if you want a peek at all the challenges, just click HERE to see! Now just as I said, all of our fine and fabulous Flourishes designers are playing along in this one, so be sure to hop on over and see what these ladies have in store!

It's Christmas in July!

Hi all and welcome to a fun-filled little Saturday surprise! I'm helping Flourishes usher in its......

 

Are you ready for a little Christmas in July?

HOW TO PLAY: It's Christmas in July! For this challenge, dig out those Christmas stamps and get those fingers inky with a Christmas creation! This Birthday Celebration Challenge is just that simple! When you are done with your creation, don't forget to link up your creation using the Inlinkz widget HERE! For Birthday Celebration Challenge #3, enter as many times as you like. If you upload to Splitcoaststampers, use the keyword FLLCBC3. You have until 11:59 PM CST on July 31st to enter! Winners will be announced Saturday, August 3rd over on the Flourishes Blog and winners will receive a goody bag from Flourishes valued at $30!

On to my creation!

   

I started by picking up one of my favorite Christmas sets -- Christmas Classics! I love all the images in this set and the variety of sentiments too! I should mention, I started with Classic White Card Stock and I used the Christmas Classics Silhouette Cut File. I stamped my image using Memento Tuxedo Black and then let the fun begin,coloring my image up with Copic Markers! I used these collections.....

  

     

 Here's a closeup of my cut and colored image!   

    

From there, it really was just matting it all up! I used some leftover paper that I had from last year from a Teresa Collins Christmas Collection, added some Basque Red Ribbon tied with gold cording and embellished with a little blingy button! Stamp the sentiment on a little sentiment flag created with a strip of decorative paper and... ta da! Done!

Need a little more inspiration? My fellow Flourishes DT teammate Stacy Morgan also has a fabulous sample to share, so check it out on her blog HERE! 

Here's the fun part....

If you need a few Christmas stamps to get creating, now is the time to buy! Between now (July 20th) and July 31st, Flourishes is hosting our annual Christmas in July Sale!

It's a Free For All Friday

We know you loved our July Releases and all the fun summer ideas you now have for them...but we thought we'd show you one more round of creative projects today with our favorites, because that's always so fun for us! And so, the design team ushers in another Free For All Friday! 

For my creation, I decided to pick up the beautiful Anemones stamp set AND, I was dying to try a new technique. I saw this on SCS but did this one with a friend who is a Stampin' Up Demo. It's called Magical Masking Tape and I have to say -- I LOVE the fact that you can do this quickly and add a bold splash of color.  HERE'S a great tutorial the ever so talented Beate Johns did not too long ago. 

So, just like the tutorial suggests, I picked five colors of ink, laid my masking tape down on the ink and then used the masking tape as a kind of stamp! Because of the sticky portion of the tape, you naturally get voids in the ink transfer, which makes this look so very cool! After I was done, I stamped the Anemones in Versafine Black Onyx, added a sentiment, punched a hole for my ribbon tied up with a bow, added some bling and then matted it on Classic Black and then a lighter teal from the Emerald Coast Collection (you can hardly see the blue but trust me -- it's there!

Here's a close up so that you can see the fun effect!

And that, my friends, is it! This is really a 10 minute creation. The hardest part was picking out the colors and I didn't even have to do that since my friend who showed me this technique did that for me! ;-)

Before I let you go --- remember -- today is the last day you can purchase the July New Release Bundle at a discount... you get 10% off all of the sets when you purchase them in the bundle. Now for the fun part, a time when you can hop around and see all the other gorgeous creations from the Flourishes Design Team! Make sure to stop by.......

Flourishes Sneaks Day 3: Anemones!

There are some sets that are so touching and fit a purpose that you really needed.  They are sets that conveys those messages of concern and care that are really meaningful. We think this is one of those beautiful sets!  We're pleased to introduce to you....  

   

The latest offering from artist Sam Pickard is a perfect stamp set to have on hand to let your friends in need know that you care. This 4 by 6" set features a beautiful bunch of Anemone flowers, a single stem, plus five beautifully scripted sentiments all with a calm and caring message.

On to my creation....

When I saw this image, I saw it bathed in sunlight and with more of a sketchy, watercolor feel. Even though I picked up my Copics to color this image, I wanted that loosey, goosey look -- one without precision. So... here goes! I stamped the Anemones on Flourishes White Card Stock, trimmed, paper pierced and then had some fun with my Copic markers. See below for the three collections that I used. After I finished coloring up my image, I did sponge some Distress Ink in the shade of Scattered Straw. From there, it's just matting up my image! I layered a couple patterned papers onto both Flourishes Classic White and Classic Black. Add some silver cording and... almost done! I did stamp my sentiment using Versafine Black Onyx so that my sentiment would really pop. If you've never tried that ink -- it is a super true black. you can't use it with Copic markers because it will smear, but for single things like sentiments -- works perfect!

Here's a close up of my flowers.....

And that, my friends, is it! I think you'll love this set and I'm excited to see what the rest of the Design Team has in store! Also... you'll need to leave some comments and try to figure out...

    

There's another Mystery Blogger to find today.  Hidden among the Design Team's blogs today is our Mystery Blogger of the day.  Comment on her blog and you could be chosen to win today's set!  The more you comment, the better your chances. So, hop on over and see.....

Flourishes Sneaks Day 2: Garden Fairies!

Dappled summer light and pretty flowers, don't you sometimes wonder what sweet little creatures might be visiting your flower garden?  Today we have a precious set to show you that might just have you believing in fairies!

   

Add a dash of whimsy with these sweet little ladies who love to flutter and fly through the garden. This set, penned by Lauren Pope offers two main fairy images and five beautifully scripted sentiments to lift spirits and bring smiles! Set measures 4 by 6".

On to my creation!

I just saw something light and sparkly with this little lady. And I found it with fun pops of purple, glitter glue and the same border I used on yesterday's card from the Far and Away Border Strips pack! I stamped my little garden fairy using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Flourishes Classic White and then... colored her up with my Copic Markers! See the list below for all the color collections that I used! After I was done, I grabbed some scraps from my decorative paper bin, added some lace, the glitter border and a fun crystal button threaded with gold cording. The sentiment was added onto a punched oval and decked out with some gold bling. 

Here's a close up so you can SEE all that sparkle! ;-) She's so sweet I might just get a cavity from looking at her! 

And that, my friends is it! The Flourishes girls have some sweet and dreamy things to show you today so head on over to visit them and don't forget that you have to figure out.....

A Challenge and... Day 1 of Flourishes Sneaks!

Welcome to Day 1 of the Flourishes July Release Week!  Are you as excited as I am about seeing what Flourishes has to offer this month?!  We are simply giddy about introducing the first of FOUR new stamp sets this month.  Don't forget, you'll have MANY instances to WIN some of our new stamp sets for your very own! And this, our first new stamp set....

  .

These beautiful buds, illustrated by Marcella Hawley are as though they are fresh clipped from the garden.  These breathtaking Dahlias would be a prize on any card or creation! This 4 by 6" set features two gorgeous main images plus five all-occasion sentiments, perfect for all kinds of creations.

On to my creation! As you'll see as you make the rounds, the Flourishes Design Team is being joined by the Friends of Flourishes Team and together we are ushering in one fun-filled challenge! It's one that, if you play along, you can win Flourishes ENTIRE JULY RELEASE! So, how do you play? Simply use acetate anywhere on your card or creation! Easy peasy! And, if you haven't tried Flourishes Clear Card Stock-- now's the time! It's amazing stuff!

For my creation, I chose to create a little sentiment window, which I thought was fun!

How did I do it? Really, it is as simple as piecing together strips of decorative paper to create that front panel. I used Flourishes Classic White as my base, trimmed so that there was a 2-1/2" inch topper on my card, took a strip of Flourishes Clear Card Stock and ran it through my Grand Calibur using a Swiss Dots embossing folder. I attached that to the white card stock and then covered up the seam with the decorative green paper. I did the same for the bottom. I attached the decorative green strip and then covered up the glue line with the pink decorative paper. This also beefed up my card so that I wasn't using near text weight paper for  my card base. Add some sheer ribbon, a little gold cording and that's pretty much the base of your card. 

I love how when you close the card, you can see the sentiment from the set in the window! 

Here's a close up of those GORGEOUS Dahlias! I stamped on Flourishes Classic White and then colored with Copic markers. You can check my supply list below for a look at the collections that I used to color this up!

And one of the touches I added that I LOVE is the glitter border. It really adds some sparkle in real life! It's a part of the Far and Away Borders pack. I love reaching for these borders when you don't feel like using your die cut machine -- it's detail in a jiffy! See?

And that, my friends, is it! Would you like ANOTHER way to win this set? It is as simple as leaving some love in the form of a comment on our designers' blogs. Why? Well, one of them will be picking names from comments and you won't know......

So comment away -- you could win this gorgeous new set called Dahlias! Just hop on over and see.....

Time for a Flourishes Release Week Challenge!

It's July!  And we're ushering in a brand new month of great stamps in the coming week from Flourishes!  So that means a great new challenge and we're inviting you to join us in!  This month it's a fun sketch to get your creativity jump-started! Here's a peek at the sketch!

   

And, here's a look at what I did with it!

I kept my layout simple because whenever I make a card with a window -- Murphy's Law -- something turns out crooked. Or, I smear ink or... something happens where I need to start the whole shebang over again. I kid you not! So, I held my breath and made a rather simple card! (Emphasis on the whole holding my breath thing!) 

My card was easy since I picked up the 123 Create Kit called Prairie Chic. I used the yellow decorative paper from it. Added a little wood grain that I had in my scrap bin. A tag was added thanks to a circle punch, some twine and a little vintage safety pin. I cut the circle thanks to a Spellbinders Classic Circles LG die. Before I matted up my decorative paper, I did sponge on some Scattered Straw Distress Ink so that I actually used the card as my mask. I wanted it to have a glow about it when you opened the card. Thanks to the Silhouette Cut File designed for the S'more Fun stamp set, I had a perfect cut out of that darling lantern image! I colored my image up with Copics (see listing below for colors used) and when I was all done I added some glitter glue at the area where my lantern flame was and then created a frame thanks to some paper piercing.... ta da! 

And, here's a close up of the window....

And that, my friends is it!

HOW DO YOU PLAY IN THIS FUN-FILLED CHALLENGE?
