Flourishes Release Week: A Mother's Hug

Good morning, are you enjoying Flourishes Release Week, so far? I know I am and I don't want it to end, but today we are showing you Flourishes last new set. I feel like Jan Marie saved the best for last, because it is.

 The set is called A Mother's Hug, and it's simply beautiful.


I stamped A Mother's Hug on Flourishes Classic White cardstock and colored it in with Copics. I matted the image in with Color Made Easy: Iced Aqua cardstock and Taupe cardstock for the card base.

I hope this Release Week has been both fun and inspirational for you as much as it has been for me. I also hope you've been leaving comments on all the designers blogs and lastly the Flourishes blog each day, so you can have a chance at a $25 Flourishes Store Gift Card! I know I want one, I have so many stamp wish lists for that store! So be sure to leave a comment below and keep on hopping through to get some more great eye candy from each of the other bloggers! You have until June 3rd to leave your comments!
Don't forget, if you buy all 3 of the new sets you get a 10% discount!

Flourishes Release Week: Clover

Did you enjoyed yesterday's DAD You Rock! stamps set? Have you gotten any new creative ideas or just salivating over new stamps? You know I have!

Today's newest Flourishes stamp set is called Clover. Simple and beautiful! Isn't that how crafting and stamps should be? Even if that's not your style or thing, I think you'll love this set.


I chose to make a postcard with my Clover set. I stamped Clover on watercolor paper and colored it in, then matted it in with Color Made Easy: Taupe cardstock then stitched around the image.

Don't forget as you follow the Flourishes stamp release blog hop, to leave comments on each of our blogs and then the Flourishes blog, last! When you do that, you will be entered into our random Grand Opening drawing. One lucky winner will win a $25 gift certificate!
