Flourishes Timeless Tuesday: Favorite Stamp and Spellbinder

Good morning Flourishes Friends!! Today's hostess is Silke and she is challenging us to create a card or project with: Our Favorite Flourishes Stamp and Spellbinders!


This challenge excites me, the possibilities are endless, because I love all my stamps and Spellbinders!! I love focusing on sentiments, so I chose to feature one of my favorites on my card. I have had this card idea for a while, just waiting for the perfect challenge. I'm a fan of simple cards, and this is by far, my favorite elegant and simple card yet.
I used the sentiment from Flourishes "Butterflies and Blossoms" I stamped in Memento "Rich Cocoa" ink on top of Flourishes "Classic Ivory" cardstock. I cut the sentiment out with a Spellbinders Label # 20 then sponged it in with "Scattered Straw" Distress Ink. I cut out a few Spellbinder diecuts, popped them up on popdots, placed them around my card, then added pearls to them. For the card base I scored a 1/4 embossed line all around my card to frame my sentiment and diecuts in. I popped that up on top of another base, to which I also scored a 1/4 inch frame all the way around it.

Please visit the rest of the team to gather more Flourishes inspirations!
