Magnolia’s for the weekend




Magnolias Graphic

Our third new Flourishes release is Magnolias and it’s stunning!  I really enjoyed coloring these gorgeous blooms.  

I began by stamping my image on Flourishes Classic White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copic markers.

I used a Classic Rectangle die from Spellbinders to cut out the image.  The patterned paper is all from MME Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks.   I layered two toned silk ribbon over crocheted white lace . tied on the sentiment that I cut with a Tailor-Made Classic Tags die set  and added a Websters Pages Sparkler and stick pin.  

All of the sets are in the Flourishes store now! Just click HERE. You’ll also see that we are offering our special New Release Bundle again – 10% off if you purchase all three stamp sets in one bundle!

You still have a chance to win the entire March release by playing in the Pinter-inspiration challenge.   Visit the Flourishes blog for all of the details!

Please visit the design team members below to get an eyeful of glorious samples!  Happy Friday and have a great weekend!

Magnolias -- such a BEAUTIFUL harbinger of Spring! I love almost everything about them. The only thing I don't like is when their luscious petals brown and fall like leaves that need raking. You did a wonderful job on your card!

Fondly,
