ood morning Flourishes friends! It's Timeless Tuesday again and this week Maki, our hostess, is challenging us to: Use Bugs, Bees or Butterflies on our cards! I love all of them, but my favorite of the three, has got to be butterflies. They are just so soft and pretty!
I chose to focus fully on the butterfly only, and decorate around the butterfly, building out and around it. It's meant to look like a butterfly under a glass frame.
I used a butterfly image from Flourishes "Butterflies and Blossoms" that I colored in with watercolors, then I cut it out and popped it up on popdots, placing it on some diecuts in the middle of my card. I created the framing with a multitude of Spellbinders dies that I cut from Flourishes Classic White Cardstock, then I added some burnt orange rhinestone bling to finish the card.

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.

Good morning and welcome back to another Timeless Tuesday challenge.
This weeks hostess is Cindy, and she is asking us to create a card or project with a Butterfly on it.
I really love butterflies and Flourishes has a few stamp sets with them, but I chose the butterfly from the "Butterflies and Blossoms" set. I love the full wings this butterfly has :)
When I used a butterfly from Flourishes "Butterflies and Blossoms" stamp set stamped in Memento "Rich Cocoa" onto Flourishes "Ivory" cardstock, that I colored in and heat embossed it many times for that muted antique look. I cut out the butterfly and popped it up on popdots. I stamped the flowers from the "Butterflies and Blossoms" in Memento "Desert Sand" onto a cicular diecut that I also popped up on popdots. I used some patterned paper and a decorative diecut, a May Arts "Ivory" Silk Ribbon bow and some bling.
