Bloomin' Aussie Florals

Welcome to the last day of our November Sneak Peeks!  Hasn't it been another great release?  

Today, we get to take the lid off the entire release AND share some fun things that are also in the Flourishes store as well! Are you ready? We are so excited we can hardly stand it! For starters -- all the stamp sets that we have shown off this week are now in the Flourishes store HERE! Remember, you can take advantage too of the New Release Bundle and save 10% when you purchase all four sets in a bundle! Today, all the designers are showing off a set that was inspired by the Land Down Under! Yes, Flourishes Fans -- we are talking about Australia! Our own Kathy Jones, who hails from Australia, helped develop this set concept, which has two beautiful botanicals as the centerpiece of the set! We also have heard from many folks (Australians and Canadians alike) that they wish we offered a set that spelled greetings an a way that they were accustomed to - words like "colour," "favourite," "neighbour," and more! 

As a Canadian....I can't tell you how delighted I was to see that little "U" in there!  

Take a trip to the land "Down Under" to see a pair of beautiful botanicals alive in this island continent. In this set called Bloomin' Aussie Florals, Artist Marcella Hawley brings the Golden Wattle and Sturt's Desert Rose to life with these illustrations and pairs them with true Aussie sentiments!

I love how this card turned out, and if you know me you know I'm not a particularly 'pinky' person.  But, I think I captured the softness to the petals that I was going for.  Colored up with Copic Markers and paired with this really lovely Lavendar Paper from MME's The Sweetest Thing Collection.  It matches so well to the Emerald Coast Color Made Easy paper and seam binding, and then I added in a little ruffled edge ribbon along the side as well, then using Teal Zeal Memento Ink for the sentiment.  

And.... to serve as the perfect partner to this set we offer....

A Silhouette Cameo Cut File to coordinate with this set! You'll find the new file HERE. And, if you click HERE, you will see the file in an .SVG format, to make it compatible with other digital cutting machines! We also have a cut file for the set we peeked yesterday called Stitched for You. You'll find the Silhouette file HERE and the SVG file HERE! Fun stuff!

You might think that this is the end of the excitement, but NO! We have more! Fresh off the manufacturing line comes a whole new line of custom dies! These aren't just any shapes. They are special! Why? Because in addition to being nested template dies custom created by Spellbinders Paper Arts exclusively for Flourishes, these dies all offer pierced accents! Say goodbye to piercing templates - these dies do it for you in one step! They are all a part of the Perfectly Pierced Collection!  I'm really excited about the elegance of these designs.  I can hardly wait to start using them....and have been stalking my mailbox waiting for them to arrive.  

Here's a peek!
