Garden Gate

Here we are at my last official post for Flourishes.  It’s been quite a ride these last 5 years.  I have grown as an artist and designer and have been honoured to have worked with some of the very best illustration available in the market.  What a blessing to have my first Design Team enable me to work with this calibur of Designers and images!  I have been truly touched by the opportunities and relationships these last five years have afforded me!  I am grateful beyond belief to count these wonderful DT girls as my friends.

I thought I’d pull out one of my all time favourite images from Flourishes, this is no small thing, since a majority of the sets are so fabulous.  This is Garden Gate, illustrated by Marcella Hawley.  It captures everything I love about her designs, wonderfully drawn botanicals, with a bit of whimsy in each.  

I began by using the Silhouette Cut File for this set to cut out the roses shape.  I stamped the spray with Memento Gray Flannel ink to soften the color a bit and then coloured up with Copics in some deep greens and deep rose colours.  For the background I stamped the gate image in Memento Olive Grove and using the Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Classic Window Die as a mask, I sponged the inside of the die to create a shadowed effect.  Maki Jones did something similiar with this set a long time ago and I just loved how it looked.  I think the images look wonderful placed together like this.  The designer paper is Echo Park Style Essentials.  

A smattering of sequins, some pretty lace behind the flowers and some rhinestones finish off the design.  

Here is...the last week sale details!

The gamble is over and now the rush is on to pick up anything left in the store that you've had your eye on. Simply use the code GAMBLERS60 in the coupon box at the time of check out to get this fabulous discount!

He is Risen!

With this being the last week of the Flourishes sale coming up and my last week of posting for the company....I thought I’d return to some of my first loves.  I hope you enjoy...

One of my first loves is my love for my Saviour - Jesus.  It shapes everything that I am.  So I wanted to symbolize that with this lovely set - He is Risen, Marcy really did a beautiful job illustrating this set (no surprise :).  I stamped it with VersaFine ink onto Watercolour paper so that I could return to one of my other first loves - watercolouring.  It’s how I first started colouring any of my stamped creations and though I use it less, it still is special to me to spread ink with a brush on paper and bring life and colour to something.  I used Letraset Aqua Markers and a waterbrush for the watercolouring.  It works well for stamped creations because you can wash colour onto an acrylic block and use it like a palette, or because they have really fine pen tips you can add it direct to your watercolor paper and get really pigmented colour that you can wash in.    

I decided to go with the simplicity of a one-layer card to really accent the image.  On the background of the paper I washed in clouds, some softly stamped sentiments from the set and then another set of Flourishes’ So Distressed in Memento Gray Flannel.   

Along the bottom of the card I used my Curvy Spellbinders die to cut the curve off of the bottom of the card and added a more decorative curve with the dies from Color Made Easy - Tonal Gray cardstock. 

Lastly I added some washi tape and seambinding with some enamel dots.  

And here is the inside of the card.  Hope you enjoyed some of the return to my first loves!

The Tea Rose

I didn’t want to let this month go by without using this gorgeous Old Tea Rose set from Flourishes.  I knew from the moment I saw it that it would be really popular.  It has that sketchy style that Sam Pickard is known for and I love watercolouring it.  So, it’s no surprise to me that it’s already sold out (Silhouette Cut File still available).  I began by stamping it on watercolour paper with VersaFine ink watercolouring it with Letraset Aqua Markers.  After colouring I used our Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Classic Window die to cut it out and then paired the design with some pretty Webster’s Pages paper I purchased this summer.  I’ve been wanting an excuse to dig out this particular sheet with the roses on it, and this was the occasion.  

I’ve added both pleated ribbon (still available in yellow and pink) and creamy lace to the design as well as a resin flower, some swirly rhinestones and placed on Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.  

And that is my “just because” card for you today :)  Enjoy the day in front of you, I hope you can make it a good one!

Are the items on your wish list still in the store? If so, you might want to act now before they are going, going, GONE for good! This week, all prices STOREWIDE are 50% off!

For a change I decided to do a round shaped card using some Gray Cardstock from our Tonal Neutrals and the Always Blooming set.  I cut the shape out with the Silhouette Cut file for this set and stamped it in Memento Gray Flannel ink to soften the lines a bit and then coloured it up with some rich copic colours, pairing it with this pretty damask paper from the Teresa Collins Far and Away designer pack.  I wanted to make use of a curvy lined design so I used my Spellbinders Curvy border die to trim the dp.  

I love this sentiment in the set and I curved it a bit to match the design and then framed the bottom of it with a little burgundy cardstock in the same curvy style.  A little gray seambinding bow, silver twine and faceted gems finish the bottom with a strip of washi tape adding a little more colour in the center.  

Here’s the sale info!  

Why is this sale a gamble? Well, ALL of the items now in the store will be sold off -- never to return again.

My OH My, What a Wonderful Day

Happy Valentine’s Day Everyone!  What a great day set aside to tell people you love them!  I for one also feel so blessed to have a craft I love and people I love which stamping has connected me to.  And on that note today we bring you another round of inspiration from our amazing Design Team in our Gambler’s Sale...this week we’re at 40% off!  In just a few days the prices will drop again to 50% off...the gamble is how long you wait before those items you love are gone!

I just LOVE this Magnolias set.  I began by stamping the smaller of the flowers in the set several times and colouring with Copics to match the variety of magnolias below.  Then I trimmed each out carefully, adding some extra greenery in the set, popping it all up onto a die cut of Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Classic Hourglass die from Flourishes Classic White cardstock.  I stamped the inside of the die shape with this fun sentiment from the set and sponged it with a soft pink ink.  

I surrounded that with another Spellbinder’s die shape, then paired it with Echo Park Everyday Ecclectic Designer Paper that I sewed onto the design, some pretty pink lace and accents with the Perfectly Pierced Victorian Oval die (the smaller die in the set) and the faceted gems.    I really love how it turned out!

My OH My, What a Wonderful Day

Will UB Mine?

How about a cutie Valentine today?

I pulled out Tokens of Love from Flourishes for a last go-around.  It has the cutest little Valentine elements, especially this little robot.  I stamped him in Memento Tuxedo Black on Flourishes Classic White and trimmed with Color Made Easy Tonal Neutral cardstock, colouring with T2, T4, T6 Copics.  Then I paired him up with some cute Valentine Paper that I got recently, Echo Park  - Head Over Heels.  I played with a recent Deconstructing Sketch.  I ruched a little red seambinding behind the horizontal panel and also used Flourishes Tailor Made Classic Tags die for the sentiment.  

Some iridescent twine and some Bakers twine tie off the tag and an enamel dot finishes it off.  

Isn’t that an adorable sentiment inside the design?  

Catch you again soon!  Have a great day!

With prices this low, your favorite sets won't be on our store shelves for long! In fact, many are already gone for good!

How about I start by showing off what I made today?  It’s very cheerful and bright! It will make you feel like eating an orange :)

I started with the very lovely ranunculus flower in the set Sweet Nature.  Honestly I think that ranunculus are some of the most unique blooms out there.  So compact, so full of colour, just amazing!  I’ve seen the fields upon fields of them blooming in Carlsbad, CA, it’s really quite a sight as you can see below.  

I stamped the tiny bouquet of blooms onto Flourishes Classic White cardstock (wow already gone...best paper out there I’m telling you!  But here’s a link to Classic Ivory still left), colouring with some fun orange Copics and then carefully trimming out.  I placed this onto a Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Classic Frame die, where I had stamped the inside of the die with the scripted sentiment from the set in Memento Pear Tart ink, sponging the inside of the die too to get that nice citrusy green.  The designer papers are Echo Park Everyday Ecclectic.  

I added a couple of cute pennants sewn in and accented with Enamel dots.  

Here’s the inside inked with Tangelo and Pear Tart ink with the single bloom stamps.  

Here’s the sale details this week.  Remember, items are going fast now.  Everytime I check something else is gone from the store!  

Why is this sale a gamble? Well, ALL of the items now in the store will be going, going, gone -- never to return again.

With that kind of discount, some of your favorite sets on your wish list won't last long!

Today I was in the mood for something “spring”, so I took out Flourishes Signs of Spring set and played with the adorable Easter Basket full of eggs.

You already know how much I love the look of Prismacolor Pencils on Kraft, and for that earthy spring feel I did it again today.  I stamped the Easter Basket on Flourishes Classic Kraft with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then gave it a little pencil colouring.  Next I cut it to be tag size and accented it with Primrose Seambinding, Teal Blue and soft yellow baker’s twine.  

The designer papers are MME - Sky’s the Limit, and I have a little soft yellow cardstock in there as well.  Lastly, a couple of enamel dots to accent.  Boy I love those little things!

Well folks, the stakes are getting a wee bit higher!  It's week three of our six-week Gambler's Sale and we're stepping up the discount again -- this time to 30% off store wide! With that kind of discount, some of your favorite sets on your wish list won't last long!

Today I chose to play with a new favourite set of mine...Friendship and Flowers...

I really love how these pincushion flowers look!  I began by using my Silhouette Machine and the Silhouette cut file for this set cutting out two shapes on Flourishes Classic White cardstock.  Then I stamped with Memento Gray Flannel because I knew I wanted a more muted palette with gray being one of the colours.  Colouring is with Copics with W00, W1 and W3s and BG0000, BG10, BG11, BG57.  

Then for fun I used one of our Tim Holtz stencils (only 2 kinds left), a sponge and sponged some colour (SU Pool Party ink) through the stencil on a Spellbinder’s Circle, framing it out with our Perfectly Pierced Classic Window Die.  I like how the sponging ties into the polka dotted paper.  

The designer papers are Teresa Collins Memories and there’s a few accents, Iridescent Twine, Seam Binding, Enamel Dots and a pretty button.

A Perfect Pear

Just a personal note from me to start with...thanks so much to many of you for your kind encouragment with my post the other day.  Hugs!  

We’re back for another round of fun in our Flourishes Gambler’s Sale!  Today the girls have pulled out some of their favourite sets from the sale to inspire you!

I picked up a really pretty set I hadn’t used in a long time -  Pears, stamping it on Flourishes Classic White card stock (my all time favourite paper to colour on!).  I coloured it up with Copics to match this really lovely paper from Carta Bella - Hello Again.  Aren’t the colors great?  I love the minty green with the pop of orangy-yellow.  

I used Karen’s Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge this week trimming down the pear image with an out-of-the-box style.  

The sweet sentiment (perfect for a wedding don’t you think?) is stamped in Memento Canteloupe ink (only the refill available now), and I’ve added some lace and sequins to accent and then paired it all with Color Made Easy Tiger Lily Cardstock.  

Inside I stamped the smaller blossom stamp - it’s a perfect match for the designer paper.    

Now here’s the fun part for you... our Gambler’s Sale discount is up to 20% off!!  

Why is it a gamble? Well, all of these items will be going, going, gone -- never to return again. So, if you see something you really want -- buy it now or take a gamble to see how low the price will go! This week, all prices will be 20% off with the code GAMBLERS20.   And...this coming Monday brings us 30% off discounts...do you dare to gamble?

Just use that code in the coupon box at the time of check out to get 20% off your entire order, even on already reduced sale prices! Each Monday, we'll be upping the ante and adding another 10% off!

Irises for Iris

Hello fellow Flourishes fans! It's Tuesday and we're here with another fantastic Timeless Tuesday Challenge for you! Have you checked out the latest and greatest Gambler's Sale this week? You don't want to miss this... it's 20% off everything in the store. Things go fast, so shop now to ensure you get all those stamps on your "must have" list! Click here for more details and your shopping code.

This week Allison is our hostess and she is challenging you to create using the newest Pantone Color of the year... Radiant Orchid... but any shade of purple will do!

 

According to the Pantone View, "Since 2000, the Pantone Color Institute™ has been designating a Color of the Year to express in color what is taking place in the global zeitgeist. A color that will resonate around the world, the PANTONE Color of the Year is a reflection of what people are looking for, what they feel they need that color can help to answer. Not necessarily the hot fashion color of the moment, but a color crossing all areas of design which is an expression of a mood, an attitude, on the part of the consumers." Have fun using purple in your creations this week!

I had a difficult occasion to make this card for.  My Uncle passed away and we went to the funeral out of town last week.  It was tough.  We knew his time was coming - but still it came too soon.  My lovely Aunt’s name happens to be Iris and as I was getting ready to use this gorgeous Flowers for Jan set, I realized how perfect this particular image would be for her.  Irises for Auntie Iris.  

I decided I wanted to make an Iris garden for her, so I stamped the image on both Flourishes Classic White cardstock and then created a mask on Eclipse tape, cutting it out carefully and then stamping twice more with the masks on the cardstock.  The Copics I used were from the Violet Collection as well as the Olive Green Collection, and then filling in with some pretty BV’s in the shadows to add some depth.  I used an out of the box cutting style for the top of the design and I chose a simple layout that also accents the flowers with this pretty Color Made Easy - Crocus Collection of cardstock.  

I’ve added some gorgeous lace, seam binding and enamel dots.  

And just a quick look at the sentiment from another Flourishes set (Anemones) I used because it was perfect - this set is already out of stock...so you know why it’s a gamble to wait on this great sale!

This week, we have asked the Senior Design Team to join us in celebrating the colour purple. Take a moment and leave some lavender love on each one of our designers this week!

And I have a very sweet set to show you that you can still purchase to sweeten the deal!

This is Flourishes very yummy Berry Sweet Frames Set.  What I love about it is of course that it’s beautifully illustrated by Marcella Hawley - but that it also coodinates perfectly with our Perfectly Pierced Classic Frames Die.  I stamped it in Memento New Sprout ink on Flourishes Classic Ivory cardtsock and coloured in some of the squares with my green copic marker.  I stamped the pretty berries with Memento Tuxedo Black coloured them up with copics and then trimmed them out with a little bit of border to pop on the other part of this die set - the center part done in pink cardstock.  

The designer paper is Echo Park - Everyday Ecclectic.  I loved this pretty floral piece and I thought it would work perfectly for that soft berry feel.  Some pleated ribbon, ivory lace and soft pink pearls finish the design off.

Night Fairies

With our wonderful world of savings going on in Flourishes Gambler’s Sale right now - we thought we’d bring you even more wonderful ideas this week.  We want to inspire you with things you might want to put on your shopping list before they’re gone!

Today I thought it would be fun to play with our adorable Garden Fairies set, giving it a dreamy night-time look.  I began with Flourishes Classic White Cardstock, stamping with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Then I coloured it with Copics to match some pretty paper in the store - Echo Park - Keepin’ Cozy.  I love to use paper that’s meant for an ocassion (for instance Christmas or Winter) and use it in another application.  The dreamy swirlys and frosty colors of this paper really works for the fairy theme.  

Here you can see a closer view of the colouring and you can also see that I really shimmered the card up by spritzing some Mister Huey’s Shine mist on the card.  It really gives it that magical feel, below when the card is tipped it really shows how shimmery it is.  

I also added some pretty smoke gray seambinding, enamel dots and placed it all on a base of Classic Black cardstock.  

Inside I stamped one of the sentiments in a pretty soft blue green and added some designer paper to match the layout of the outside of the card.  

Our Talented Senior Design Team have some beautiful designs to show off for you today from our Sale so head on over and visit:
