So to celebrate today, the Flourishes DT has created some Birthday Celebration creations to show you!

Aren't these strawberries from the Strawberry Set delicious looking?  I decided to go really monochromatic with lots of red on red in this card.  I embossed the Real Red layer with texture plate from PaperTrey Ink, and then used lots of Spellbinders dies to create the shapes (Labels 10, Labels 4, Floral Accent, Victorian Borderabilities and Fancy Tags), and I used the Lattice Embossing Die from SU on the white.  I also stamped the Basket Weave Background in white Craft ink on the Labels 10 shape matching the ribbon.

Have you seen all the gorgeous new ribbons and trims in the Flourishes Store???  Oh my, be still my heart.  I just got an order today with more in them, I'm in ribbon .  I think what I love so much about the Boutique Cuts in the store is that you can purchase them so inexpensively by the yard.  I've used two pretty ribbons on this card, the new Elastic Edge Gingham Ribbon which is RUFFLED, and Faux Suede in Red.  Complete YUM.


On the sentiment I used Tag Lines, probably my favourite of Flourishes Sentiment sets, and so economical too, and curved the word *Birthday* to fit around the tag.  A huge advantage of polymer stamps!  Then using the ribbon to hold it, I puffed out the sentiment tag to give it some curvy dimension.

So you'll want to visit the Flourishes girls today to see their Happy Birthday wishes and join us in the challenge this month you could win these awesome prizes including the September New Releases...
