Boat Load of Fun

Hello, Friends.  It's kReN here and I'm sharing a masculine card this week. Shirley, my Friends of Flourishes DT colleague, has challenged us to do a masculine card.  I thought of the boat in Coastal Christmas. It's so easy to modify a stamp to use just part of the image.   I had so much fun making this card that I am wishing I had made more than one while I was creating.  Live and learn!

Merry Christmas!

Hello, Friends!  It's time to share  projects using Flourishes lc sets of stamps.  Today I am showcasing the set called Must Be Santa and on another card a sentiment from Coastal Christmas.

Here is what I did to create this first card for you basing it on the theme of Christmas chosen by Gloria.  I colored the image using Promarkers and Copic markers and fussy cut it out.  I pulled the Merry Christmas sentiment from the Coastal Christmas set.  I used a cover plate die that reminded me of a peppermint stick on top of the green vertical card blank and mounted the image and a stitched die cut sentiment on top.  It isn't really a CAS card because there's not an expanse of white, but it's pretty clean and simple by my definition.

Other products:  Gina Marie Designs die, no name die, Promarkers, Copic markers, Wink of Stella clear glitter brush

The second card I have to share with you has more layers and items attached.  It uses the same set mounted on a patterned card stock.  I also colored the milk and cookies image with the same kinds of markers and fussy cut them all.

Flourishes Stamps in Review

Hello, Friends!

It's kReN here again to share a Flourishes project with you.

We're doing a Stamps in Review and

I chose Coastal Christmas to showcase.

As a native Floridian, Christmas in my home state may be a different version from yours.

No snow, no cold to speak of, no mittens or heavy coats so we stoke the AC
 instead of a gas fireplace, and sip hot cocoa, and
have our own version of falalalalala. 

My Northern friends are having
snowy days and we're still in the mid-80's here and 
I planted roses today.  
A seagull and pastel colors and a trip to a beach is going
to be our Christmas gift to each other.

Please visit the Friends of Flourishes DT blogs 
to see more wonderful projects.
