Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Anniversary Celebration! (FTTC52B)!


It is Flourishes Timeless Tuesday First Anniversary Celebration! Thanks so much for all of you who have played along with us this past year! To celebrate our First FTTC Anniversary each blog design team member is hosting a challenge! Check out the FTTC Anniversary Celebration post to find out how to play, then check out each challenge! FTTC52A, FTTC52B, FTTC52C, FTTC52D, FTTC52E, and FTTC52F! Lots of fabulous prizes to be given away! We look forward to having you celebrate with us!


I am hosting Flourishes Challenge FTTC52B, the second of the FTTC Celebration Challenges!  I picked one of my favorite FTTC challenges.  We are revisiting challenge FTTC23. We are "cutting it out" and "popping it up" to add dimension and interest to our cards!!! The sky is the limit with this one. Just remember to "cut it out" and "pop it up"! We would love to see what you create!




I am using Flourishes Sweet Peas and Strawberries stamp sets.  I always use Flourishes classic cardstock in ivory or white.  Today, I am using both.  I colored my sweet peas using Flourishes Copic Color Collection in Sweet Pea, Dusty Rose, and Meadow. 


Check out the following links to see samples designed by Guest FTTC challenge hosts!   Once you make your card for this challenge, leave the link with Mr. Linky!

















This card is also for today's SCS Color Combo Challenge(CC256)! 
This week is all about Crushed Gray Burgandys!  This week's dessert option is TEXT in ways other than sentiment!

  13. Hoping to get to play along with this challenge tomorrow. Why is this one of my busiest weeks in a long time - no fair! I've loved the garden of popped-up flowers and fruit that I've just taken a trip through - and how lovely to finish off with these beautiful sweetpeas. I don't think I could ever pick a single favourite flower, but these are something I plant every year and love.
    I don't think I'll be doing quite this amount of cutting out, but it gives a great feel to your spray of sweetness.
