Flourishes challenge

Three cards in two days, pretty sure that is a record for me! But when I saw that Flourishes was having a blog hop and a chance to win their new release I had to jump in. You need to go to each blog to collect a word and then make a card using all of the words.


I only own two Flourishes stamps (so far!) so this is the one I chose to use. I popped up and glittered the butterfly and added some liquid pearls to the edges of the sentiment. Paper was from my stash so sorry I don't know who it is by. I colored all three flowers with the same copics but each one a little differently. And of course I will be entering this into the challenge.

    A totally different card to what I expect to see here, but as equally beautiful. I love the simplicity of the card which really focus's your eye on the image and your fab colouring. The popped up butterfly and soft, fat bow are perfect embellies.

    Hugs
