Just A Note...FTTC174 45

Hi there! It's time for a new Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge! This week Cindy is our lovely hostess and the challenge theme she chose is "From the Desk"... In other words, make notecards, a monogrammed card... whatever you may find on your desk.

I made a rather clean and simple card. I stamped a beautiful image from Flourishes Summer Blossoms on a piece of Flourishes Ivory card stock, cut using a Spellbinders Oval die then colored with an assortment of Copic markers.

I layered the colored image on a piece of newsprint patterned paper that was cut using a Spellbinders Labels Eleven die then finished it off with a few drops of Perfect Pearls:

I hope you ink up your stamps, especially ones from Flourishes and join in the fun! Please be sure to visit the Flourishes blog for complete details and for some fabulous inspiration visit our June Guest Designer: Alice Wertz and the entire DT: Heather, Silke, Makiko, Cindy, Beate, Amanda
