Flourishes Friday Focus

TGIF!  Wow, this week flew by and that’s good because I am so ready for another weekend!  I am using Ferns and Fiddles from Flourishes

DPK_FF_May18_web

I love how delicate and elegant the fern fronds are.  They are stamped on Flourishes Classic White card stock with Versa Magic ink in Spanish Olive in random pattern around the outside of the panel.  I then used the same ink and sponged in from the edges.  I went over the edges again with Distress Inks in Antique Linen and Tea Dye.    I stamped the beautiful sentiment with Versa Mark Tuxedo Black ink.   The panel is mounted on a piece Bazzill dot card stock.   I used two pieces of ribbon, Black Braided trim and Natural Linen Ruffle layered together with very thin piece of twine between them.   I finished it off with three tiny square gems from Basic Grey.

Check out the beautiful creations this week from the design team and have a great weekend!
