Sweetness of Friendship...FTTC177

***I have two posts, if you are looking for my Pink Paislee Summer CHA peeks post, please click HERE***


Hello! It's Tuesday, so time for a new Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge! This week's challenge is all about getting "sentimental" and using a sentiment as the centerpiece of your card or creation.
Today, we are ushering in this challenge because not only is Flourishes releasing a new single stamp set with a beautiful sentiment, we are helping Jan Marie, the owner of Flourishes launch her new blog! Want a peek at the new sentiment?
Here's my sample using this new beautiful sentiment:
The stamp is called Sweetness of Friendship and it takes on the mantra of Jan Marie's new blog - a place where friends can gather to enjoy the laughter and sharing of pleasures (in creating!) The stamp set is available right now and you can check it out in the Flourishes Store HERE It's a beauty as you can see:
What's even more fun? Jan Marie is giving away this stamp to the first 25 people who leave comments on today's post over on her new blog.
Thanks so much for looking! We can't wait to see what you create when you put a sentiment at the center of your creation! Please be sure to see what the FTTC DT has created using the new sentiment: Patti Gilliam and the entire DT: Heather, Makiko, Cindy, Amanda, Denise, Allison and the Flourishes Senior DT: Barbara, Beate, Christine, Cindy L,
Danielle, Jan Marie, Sharon, Silke, Stacy, Tammy.


As you make the rounds in today's Timeless Tuesday hop, you'll notice that some of the designers are using a fresh picked 123 Create Kit!
These kits have everything you need to create color coordinated cards with paper, ribbons and embellishments - all in one kit! Travel HERE to see for yourself!
