Timeless Tuesday : Go Natural

Good morning Flourishes Friends! It's Release Week again at Flourishes and they have a fun challenge and a Release Week sneak peak of the new "Inside and Out Just Because" set! The Flourishes Senior Design Team will be joining us this week, which is a real treat!

First of all, do you want to see a quick peak of the new set? Here it is!


Isn't it pretty? I know I'll be using it for everyone of those Just Because cards I always seem to need. 

This weeks hostess is Denise, and she has challenged us to: Create A Natural Card from her inspiration challenge photo. 


I love the soft cream hues of the photo, so I pulled out my new creamy canvas paper a nice texture and versatility.



I used Flourishes "Inside and Out Just Because" stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa ink on top of canvas paper. I stitched around the canvas paper then added a square lace applique, some crochet & paper flowers, ribbon and a pearl strand. I placed that on top of some kraft paper and added a punched border to finish. 

Please visit the rest of the teams to gather more Flourishes Timeless Tuesday "Natural" inspirations!

Thank you for visiting and please have a great day!
