Happy Day! Flourishes FTTC315, SCS CC320, and MORE!






Happy Tuesday everyone!  It is time for Flourishes FTTC115!  Silke is the challenge host this week. She has a fun sketch for us this week.   We would love to see what you create!  I am using the colors from SCS CC320.  This week we are using baja breeze, bashful blue, and certainly celery.  


For my card I am using Flourishes Siberian Iris, Strips and Stripes, and Birthday Pennants.   I inverted the sketch and put the flower or rectangle element on the right and added my sentiment to the seam binding bow.   I did add the circular sketch design to a card.    I stamped my my iris with Memento tuxedo black onto Flourishes Classic white cardstock.  I colored with Flourishes Copic Color Collection.  I layered onto a base using Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.     I finished my card with gold button, seam binding, and tag sentiment. 

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

Cindy   Dee   Silke   Maki,  Tammy, and 
March's Guest Designer Pattie Goldman!

    Your card is beautiful and I love that bow! I bought the iris stamp last year and bet I've used it a dozen times throughout the year. It's one of those stamps that looks great no matter what color you choose.
