It's the final day of Flourishes' Release!

AutumnBlessingsGraphic 

Welcome to our last day of August New Releases at Flourishes!  We're thrilled with your response to these beautiful fall-themed sets, and to finish our week out we know you'll love today's little treasure too!  You can celebrate all that Autumn has to offer with a spirit of thanksgiving. This beautiful and earthy set penned by Marcella Hawley features three main images, two accent images and six mix and match sentiments. Set measures 4 by 6".

On to my creation! This card below is actually one of the creations in this month's Class in a Box kit! Have you ever tried this system? Flourishes cuts the card stock, decorative paper and even includes die cut shapes, ribbon and embellishments. You simply stamp, color and assemble!


I kept it simple this this design and let the beautiful image take center stage! After stamping in Tuxedo Black Memento ink, I colored it up with Copic markers.

Here's a close up!

And with the Class in a Box comes two other card designs using this set -- here's a peek!

  11. Your wagon full of perfectly colored pumpkins and gourds looks amazing. This reminds me of the farm we go to, to get pumpkins. They have big old wagons full of pumpkins. I always go for the unusual shapes and colors like you have here. :)
