Flourishes New Release Day Three

Hi everyone, and welcome to day three of Flourishes’ Sneak Peeks for October! We hope you love the offerings this month as much as we do! Today’s sneak peek set is all about those happy occasions in your life and making sure to celebrate them! And, what better way to celebrate than to have one set that can be mixed and matched, inside and out to honor a bevy of different festivities!  Introducing Inside & Out Happy...



Give the inside and outside of your cards a bit of pizzazz with these mix and match sentiments for all occasions! Words are designed to be used together or apart on the inside or outside of your creations! This set measures 4″ by 3″. Talk about an action packed pint-sized set!

Here’s my creation for today…

I chose to make what could be used as a birthday card for today (in fact, I stamped happy birthday on the inside but forgot to photograph!)  I stamped “happy” with Ranger Spiced Marmalade distress ink, and “wishes to you!” with Ranger Worn Lipstick distress ink.  I cut out the sentiment with a deckled rectangle Nestabilities die and sponged a little Pumice Stone distress ink around the inside edges of the die, and on most of the cardstock and paper edges.  I embossed that piece while it was still in the die using my No-More-Shims embossing pad, also from the Flourishes online store.  (WHAT did I EVER do without that embossing pad before?  It’s a miracle!)  The papers I used here are from a new 6x6 paper pad in the Flourishes online store, the Lavender line from My Mind’s Eye.  I embellished with some seam binding, rolled roses, hot pink Kaisercraft rhinestones, and these fabulous leaf trinket pins.
