Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC79), CC283, TSTR22, and Kids at Play!



It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC79)! This week Cindy Haffner is hosting. She is challenging us to a sketch she has designed. As far as sketches go, there is not much of an explanation necessary. You can turn it and modify the shapes to fit your size card, but in the end, it should still look like the sketch. Good Luck!!! We cannot wait to see what you create with it!



This card is also for SCS Color Combo Challenge(CC283)!  This week it is all about Baja Poppy Cakes!  The dessert option you must read to believe!  LOL!  Check out the link to play along with  us!


This card is also for The Shabby Tea Rooms Inspiration Challenge(TSTR22)!  Since my top card is all about color, I decided to play off of the mirror and lighted candle effect.  I totally went over the top with my bling!  I heart my card, though.  A bit different for me, but totally shabby chic funky!  LOL!  This card is also for this week's Pile It On Challenge(PITC31)!  "Little Bit Country...Little Bit Rock and Roll!"  I am totally flying rock and roll with this look. The sentiment reminds me of the song "Listen to Your Heart" by DHT...one hit wonder, but I still heart the song! It also complies with Simon Says Challenge!  Sing It!  Since I used a heart it is also for City Crafter Challenge Blog CCCB Week 17!

For my card I am using Flourishes Lace Heart and Beauty Within stamp sets!  I am using Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock, gingham ribbon, and Memento lady bug and rhubarb inks.  I am also playing Flourishes release challenge Kids at Play (FLLCAUG10)!  I layered various textures and bling detailing.  I stamped my lace heart, used crystal effects, then added some more flourished bling.  My sentiment may me think of playing Hide and Go Seek game because you have to listen with your heart.  It is so quiet and dark.  Then, after my card was complete, with the blue flourished bling coming from the peak of the heart, it made me think of a kite.  So, that is another fun kid's game. 


Check out the other blog team designers to see what they created with the sketch!
