Good morning and happy Friday everyone! Today is Flourishes Friday Focus on What A Catch and our Focus on the Designers! Please check out who the Focus is on this week HERE on the Flourishes blog!
On to my creation, I created a Father's Day gift card holder, for the men that are hard to buy for!
I stamped What A Catch on Classic Ivory cardstock, with Versafine Black Onyx ink and fussy cut my image. I colored it in with Ice Blue, Buttercup, Beehive, Copper, Walnut, Flesh Tones 1 and Cool Neutrals Copic Collections. I found a DAD gift card file on the online Silhouette America store and cut the Shape out with my Silhouette Cameo Machine and I used Score Tape to adhere all of the layers together.
Inside it I stamped the fish image in the gift card pocket area and colored it in with the Ice Blue, Cool Neutrals, and Sweet Pea Copic Collections. I wanted to add a Bass Pro Shops Gift card inside but apparently we don't have any near by us :(
For more What A Catch inspirations, visit the Flourishes Gallery! I know it will just tickle your toes seeing all those awesome designs!

Today's Timeless Tuesday, we are challenging you to : Savor Summer, by Creating a Recipe or Recipe Card Featuring Your Favorite Summer or Any Other Seasonal Recipe!! :)
Did you know that Flourishes offers two beautifully designed recipe cards that you can download? You can find them "HERE" in the Flourishes store. I chose to use both of the designs for the challenge. They are so handy to have and so pretty!
I chose to create my recipe cards with a clean minimal look. And I created folded card bases on them so that the recipe can stand up and they can be seen clearly. As you can see, I couldn't help filling a few of them in with some family favorites :)
I used Flourishes "Garden Fresh" set, watercolored in and fussy cut out, then popped up on popdots. I placed the beets on a Flourishes "Fresh Recipes" recipe card design printed on Flourishes "Classic White" cardstock, placed on top of Kraft paper.
I chose Flourishes "Peaches and Cherries", watercolored them in, fussy cut them out, then popped them up on popdots. Then I placed the cherries on a Flourishes "Fresh Recipes" recipe card design
printed on Flourishes "Classic White" cardstock, on top of Kraft
paper.
I used Flourishes "Garden Fresh" set, watercolored the carrots in, then fussy cut them out, and popped them up on popdots. I placed the carrots on a Flourishes "Fresh Recipes" recipe card design
printed on Flourishes "Classic White" cardstock, on top of Kraft
paper.
I chose to use Flourishes "On the Porch", watercolored it in, fussy cut it out, then popped it up on popdots. I placed the lemonade on a Flourishes "Fresh Recipes" recipe card design
printed on Flourishes "Classic White" cardstock, on top of Kraft
paper.
I chose Flourishes "What A Catch" that I watercolored in, fussy cut out, then popped up on popdots. I placed the fish on a Flourishes "Fresh Recipes" recipe card design
printed on Flourishes "Classic White" cardstock, on top of Kraft
paper.
I chose to use Flourishes "Garden Fresh", watercolored it in, fussy cut it out, then popped it up on popdots. Then I placed the snow peas on a Flourishes "Fresh Recipes" recipe card design

Good Morning Flourishes Friends!! This week our hostess Heather and she is challenging us to: Create a Father's Day Card or Project!
It's that time of year where we get to honor the men in our lives who put up with our crafting passion and hand over their wallets to pay for our craft supplies! And this is where we get to challenge ourselves to create a masculine card!
My husband grew up fishing with his Dad in Montreal, so I decided to make a card that would remind him of those memories. They would catch Perch, Northern, and Small Mouth Bass. But Chris's favorite fish he was only able to catch twice was a Trout. So I decided this card was going to feature the beautiful colors of a Trout :)
I used Flourishes "What A Catch" that I stamped out on Flourishes "Classic White Cardstock". I colored the fish image in with watercolors, then cut it out with my craft knife, and popped it up on popdots. The splashing water was colored in with the following Copic Collections:
