Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC89), SCS CC293, and MORE!


It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC89)! Maki Jones is the challenge host this week. Maki is challenging us to focus on the sentiment. Create a card or project with the sentiment as the main focus. We would love to see what you create. I am using the newly released or should I say a re-release version of an old Flourishes favorite.  It is a single stamp called Rejoice with all the Flourishes and ivy detailing needed to make a perfect Christmas card!  I am using a layered Spellbinder's Label 17.   I am using Flourishes classic ivory cardstock.  I colored the image with Flourishes Copic Colors Collections.  I also used some BasicGray Jovial dp for my card. 

I am using the sketch from Midnight Madness Sketch MMSC76!  I always try to guess from the sneak peek which one of the choices I am closest too.  I did turn it and add a honking bow! 

My card is also for a few more challenges!
SCS Color Combo Challenge(CC293)!  Concord Cherry Olives!

  29. Betty, you couldn't have made a better choice of dp to go with this awesome image. What a perfect card for Christmas. Love your ribbon/button treatment. I don't think I told you I got to visit Flourishes this summer while I was in Orange Beach, AL Just took a short trip to Pensacola, called, and got to go by. It was such a wonderful shopping experience.
