Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC118) and MORE!


 
Happy Tuesday! It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC118)!  This week Tammy is the challenge host.  She has an inspiration picture handcrafted by Julia Sandvoss. for us this week be inspired by this week.   We would love to see what you create!   I am using the colors from SCS Color Combo CC323.  Rich Razzleberry, Regal Rose, and Ivory.






 
For my card, I am using Flourishes I am using Flourishes newly released Wedded Bliss stamp set. I am using Flourishes Classic cardstock. I am also using Melissa Francis 5th Avenue paper pack from the kit of the month.

I layered a couple of Spellbinder's.  When I think of topiaries, I think of structure framed flowered shapes.  For my inspiration, I used the shape concept for my card with spellbinder frames.  I layered  Labels 20 and one of the Fancy Tags 2 die cuts together and ran through my machine.  I love the negative interior frame the fancy tag 2 shape makes in the center of the ornate Label 20. I used the Nested Lacey Pennant tag for my sentiment.
