FLLC Falling Leaves....

Happy TGIF!

Today the Flourishes Senior Design Team is focusing on showing off the beautiful Falling Leaves Set.

I decided to create a 5" x 5" fold card. My card base was created with the Flourishes Classic White CS. I stamped the leaves randomly on the inside and outside of my folds using the new Color Made Easy Memento Ink Pads ~ Potters Clay, Rich Cocoa, Cantaloupe, Jelly Grape, Toffee Crunch and Teal Zeal.

For the inside of my card I simple stamped the sentiment from the Falling Leaves Set onto the Circle Spellbinder Die and layered it onto a Doily. Next I created the *Ribbon Sleeve*.....I started with the Brown Wrinkled Silk Ribbon and added Sheer Lined Edge Teal Ribbon on top along with a bow that was embellished with a Metal Button Brad and the darling Flourishes Tailor-Made Tag with the matching sentiment from the Tiny Flowers and Tags Set. At last I finished the card off with some fabulous Prima Fall Crystals.

I hope you enjoyed this card?  Now it's time to check out the rest of the teams creations ~

CQC156 Grown With Love....

Happy Tuesday!

I hope you had a great weekend? Mine was short because I had to work....but it was all good!  This week will be another long conference week, but then I'm good until Spring.....yeah!

Anyway, today I have a new Color Q card for you. Arielle has provided another awesome color palette and we hope you get a chance to play along with us.

My card started out with the Flourishes Classic White CS. I decided to ink up the awesome Flourishes Seeds of Friendship Set with Memento Rich Cocoa.and also *edge distress* the main image. The DP in the background is from the BasicGrey Little Black Dress Collection. The *25 Cent* and *Grown with Love* images were inked in Memento Lilac Posies and the *Hand Picked for You* image was inked in Memento Potters Clay. Next I embellished the card with matching Flowers, the May Arts Iridescent Ribbon, a Creative Floral Brad and some Prima Smoky Crystals. I wanted to give the card a vintage feel and *ink distressed* the edges and the main image with the Ranger Antique Linen.

I'm also submitting this card for the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday #188 ~ Create a *Fall Themed* project.

Thank you so much for stopping by and please make sure to swing by the Color Q Blog to see all the fabulous cards the rest of the team has created.

I'll be back on Thursday with a new ODBD card....see you then,
