Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC55) and CC259!




It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC55)!    It is the last Tuesday of the month so we have a guest challenge host! This month's guest is Iwona Palamountain (Chupa). Iwona lives in Australia! She is challenging us to use flowers! Whether they are printed flower designer papers, stamped, punch created, or store bought, put some flowers on your card this week! We would love to see what you create!

For my card I am using Flourishes A Year of Flowers 2  and Sweet Violets stamp sets.  I am using Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.   I colored my flower using Flourishes Copic Color Collection in Green Grass, Gerber Daisy, Tiger Lily, and Buttercup.   I am using several Spellbinder shapes.  



Please check out the other FOF Blog Team Designers to see what
they made using flowers this week! 



This card is also for today's SCS Color Combo Challenge (CC259)!  This week we are celebrating the Olympics with a Color Challenge Event!  You must check out  the link to find out all about your Olympic Color Choices with dessert option!
