Flourishes January Release Challenge

The New Year Challenge Graphic
Ring in the new year with “Father Time” or “Baby New Year” – this challenge is a fight between new and old! To be in the running, simply use a card that showcases an image of time (i.e. one of our calendars, the Moments in Time set) or one that showcases little baby new year i.e. a baby card. Either will get you in the running to win the entire January release!  Visit the Flourishes blog for all the details.
Today I am showcasing the new 123 Create Kits called Sweet Nothings.  It contains beautiful vintage print paper from Kaiser, lovely ribbons, and perfect little adhesive gems.  Get yours here!

I decided on a baby themed card and I used the Baby Love set.

I stamped the images and sentiment on Flourishes Classic White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.   I used Prismacolor pencils and oms to color the images and then I sponged around the panel with Wheat ink from Versa Magic. 
The design team has lots of beautiful inspiration for you today so make sure you check their blogs!

The papers are stunning. I did a crewel wall hanging of this verse while expecting my 1st child 32 years ago! Time flies. I LOVE the set.
