Flourishes New Release - The First Noel



It's the last day of sneak peeks of the November New Release for Flourishes! All the beautiful Christmas sets you've seen this week are NOW available for purchase in the Flourishes online store. Get yours now, or pick up all 4 in the New Release Bundle at 10% savings!

Our last stamp set for today is The First Noel, and depicts another one of Lauren Pope's wonderful silhouettes with this beautiful Nativity! This is truly a most outstanding stamp set, which includes two Scripture verses, and the Merry Christmas sentiment you see on the front of my card. (I stamped one of the Scriptures on the inside, but forgot to photograph it.)
I decided to go with a rustic look for my design, stamping the image on River Rock cardstock and adding some distressing on the edges of the papers from Authentique. I embellished with some gingham ribbon, a small evergreen branch and some buttons with my sentiment tag.

Want to win this set and matching die? All you need to do is leave some love in the form of a comment on the blogs below! Why? You need to try to figure out…..
One of the ladies on the link list below will be picking a name from the comments on her blog post today. We don’t know which one it is… so the more blogs you leave comments on, the more chances you have to win! So, head on over and see how our fabulously talented design team used this beautiful new set and matching die combo that is sure to be a holiday fave for years to come!


Also, don't forget the Snowy Delights Challenge still going on, the Timeless Tuesday challenge and the two Noontime Challenges where you have the chance to win ALL the stamps from the new release! If you're not playing along, you're just plain ol' crazy! :)
