Perfect Pear


We're back with today's Noon Time Challenge at Flourishes.  An extra chance for you to win these gorgeous new December Releases.  Today it's a color challenge with Cream, Red and Green, perfect for the season.  

Marcella has illustrated some beautiful elegant and realistic pears for this set.  It's just SO pretty.  I pulled out my Prismacolors and colored this trio of pears and blossoms, adding some red for the ripening color in the fruit and blending with OMS. I love how pretty the green chenille ribbon is :)


A little quilt edged punching to accent and the pretty Parisian Die behind the Labels Ten die, and a little sewing and embellishing and it's done.  :)  Hope you can join us on this challenge!  It's a great way to enter to win this set!

Have mercy, you're all blowing me away with your beautiful cards! I love this pear set, but also the birds, and your tag with the roses is exquisite! I forgot it was release week so now I've got a lot to see all in one evening. Gorgeous stuff, Christine!
