Hope for a Young Lady


Welcome to another lovely Friday at Flourishes!  Yesterday we had a spring snow storm and our world is white again.  Today the team has another look at the gorgeous March Releases for you!  I know you'll love them.  And it's your last chance today to pick these sets up at a 10 % discount!


I created this wonderful Magnolia frame for this especially meaningful sentiment.   This is going to a lovely young lady who could use some extra measures of hope and encouragement.  I stamped the magnolia blossom thre times in a circle-ish-triangle shape and trimmed out the middle of the circle, leaving room for the popped up flowers to frame the sentiment underneath.  I love how it turned out!  

This young lady's Mama is spectacular at vintage and shabby designs and her daughter likes them too, so I went a little vintage and shabby with the sponging on the embossed panel, the distressed and sponged designer paper and the pretty Spellbinder's edging on the card. 


Copic Collections Used....




Now go ahead and join the rest of the Design Team to see their wonderful creations today:
