Flourishes Day Two Noontime Challenge

It’s that time again... noon time! And what does that mean? Another challenge designed to spark creativity and give you a chance to win Flourishes’ Entire April Release!  So, get ready and take…..


HOW TO PLAY: Create something for the book lover in your life... a bookmark, a corner page saver, a gift card holder for their favorite book store, the sky is the limit! If you upload to Splitcoaststampers, please use the keyword FLLCAPRRW2. Entries must be in before Friday, April 13th at 5PM EST. To enter, make sure you link up your creation using the Inlinkz widget on the Flourishes blog!

And here is my corner bookmark, created for a friend who is being baptized this evening...



I used the Lily of the Valley stamp from the new Botanical Bookplates vol. 2 stamp set, and the sentiment from Lenten Rose.  My image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Flouishes Classic White cardstock.  I cut out the image with a Nestabilities Circle, matted with another Nestabilities Circle, and then matted again with a Lacey Circle.  The bottom edge of my bookmark was cut with one side of a Long Large Scalloped Rectangle die.  I embellished with some Kaisercraft pearls, some Ivory Lace Trim, and a seam binding bow.  I colored with Copics from the collections below...



I also used papers from the new 123 Create Kit for April...
